Raj Kapoor and Dilip Kumar’s ancestral homes are currently located in Peshawar and the Pakistani government plans to turn them into museums soon.

Countless people had to leave their homes behind and move to other places during the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. People who once resided in the areas that are now a part of the Pakistani lands had to sell off their homes before moving away just like notable Indian actors Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor had to. And now, Pakistani officials have confirmed that they will be converting their ancestral homes into museums.
