Indian-origin Anita Verma-Lallian purchases house where Matthew Perry was found dead last year, performs 'puja'
Indian-origin woman Anita Verma-Lallian has bought the US residence where the late Hollywood actor Matthew Perry died in October last year.
If media reports are to be believed, then Anita Verma-Lallian bought the home in Pacific Palisades in Los Angeles for a whopping $8.55 million.
She shared several images of hosting a 'Hindu puja' ceremony and performing rituals at the property where the iconic NBC sitcom Friends actor was found dead at age 54. On October 28 last year Perry was found unresponsive in a hot tub here. He was later pronounced dead.
She also shared some stunning images of the home.
Sharing a long caption, she wrote on Instagram: "As a real estate developer myself, I believe every property has a history that we may or may not know about, and every home carries the energy that the current owner brings to it. I am Hindu, and it’s customary to do a blessing and prayer anytime you buy a new home. We were so lucky to have our Panditji from Arizona come to the house to do the blessing."
Speaking about her plans with the property, she said: "We chose to honor the positive aspects of the previous owner’s life, his immense talent, and all the joy he brought to so many people. The decision to purchase the home had nothing to do with the previous owner, just our love of the home."
She said she is waiting to make new memories in the house.
She performed the ceremony during Diwali festivity last week.
