Sourav Ganguly’s ₹40 crore ancestral mansion in Kolkata is a 48-room family legacy, cricketing glory and classic Bengali charm

Sourav Ganguly, aka “Dada” and the “Prince of Kolkata”, is known as India’s one of the most influential cricket captains. The Indian cricket team, under his captaincy, showed its fearless side. With over 18,000 international runs in his kitty and multiple historic overseas wins, Dada’s captaincy will remain historic. Later, he served as the 35th President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) between 2019 and 2022. ​

But beyond the cricket field and commentary boxes, his Kolkata den reflects legacy, heritage and family values.

This massive mansion has served as a private residence to the family for more than 60 years now. The cricketer lives here with his wife Dona, daughter Sana, and his extended joint family.
