Looks more like a compound to house a small army...
That money would have been better spent building a castle of authentic materials and design of actual historical value... e.g Napa Valley Winery, Super Tuscan, Italian Style Wines, Visit Castello di Amorosa; The beautiful Napa Valley Winery in a 13th century Tuscan Castle setting.

He's an Indian (one of the Ambani brothers), it's in Bombay/Mumbai, and it's closing in on 2 billion. The "house" is somewhere around 60 storeys, but 27 floors(high ceilings etc).

you could throw like 10 big parties. There really is a point when all that goes from nice to just dumb. I believe Bill Gates' house was around $100mill, and is certainly more tastefully done than that ridiculous structure on the first page, or this building that the indian guy is building.
