The lavish home Villa Vari owned by Indo-Swiss billionaire couple Pankaj and Radhika Oswal is now listed among the world’s top 10 most expensive houses. The opulent masterpiece, with its jaw-dropping price tag of $200 million is furnished with ultimate luxurious amenities that will leave you in awe. The ambitious project was designed by interior curator Jeffrey Wilkes, who has previously crafted the famed Oberoi Rajvilas, Oberoi Udaivilas, and Leela Hotels.
Originally belonging to Christina Onassis, the socialite and heiress of the Onassis fortune, the Swiss mansion was brought by the power couple Pankaj and Radhika Oswal.
Pankaj Oswal has a remarkable business portfolio with a net worth of over $3 billion, which includes petrochemicals, real estate, and mining. He is the sole founder of Burrup Fertilisers in Australia- the world’s leading producer of liquid ammonia. Not only this, he is the heir to a multibillion-dollar global conglomerate Oswal Group Global which houses PRO Industries, the largest modern ethanol plant in East Africa, and the proud owner of Axis Minerals, involved in bauxite mining projects in West Africa. Despite their colossal wealth, the Oswal family prefers to remain out of the spotlight.
