Mumbai, Jan. 31 (TNS): King Khan lands in hot waters as Shah Rukh Khan’s farmhouse in Maharashtra state has been provisionally attached to by the income tax department, Times of India reported.

Sources said that the attachment notice issued under the Prohibition of Benami Property Transactions Act in December of last year.

The main allegation against SRK is that he had made an application to purchase agricultural land for farming, but instead constructed a farmhouse at Alibaug for personal use.

Reportedly, his property has been spread over an area of 19,960 square metres and has a circle rate of Rs 146.7 million.

The farmhouse has swish comforts like swimming pool, a private beach and a helipad.

This issue had come to the front in November 2017, when it was reported that the farmhouse was one of the 87 properties against whom action could be taken for alleged Coastal Regulatory Zone  violations.
