Friends fame Matthew Perry's former home in Pacific Palisades, where he passed away last year was recently sold. Read to know more.
Matthew Perry rose to fame with his role as 'Chandler Bing' in the popular sitcom, Friends. The show was a huge success and still is one of the most cherished comedy shows. According to some reports, Perry and his co-stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer were making $1 million per episode by 2002.
Perry, who was found dead in his former home in Pacific Palisades last year, has been bought by Anita Verma-Lallian, an Indian-origin property developer and film producer. Anita purchased Perry's home for Rs 72.04 crore in an off-market deal. Anita shared pictures of her new home on Diwali while performing a traditional Hindu puja as a homage to Matthew’s memory.
Anita Verma-Lallian shared photos and videos on Instagram. In the picture, Anita is seen beside her husband. She was seen performing the ceremony by the pool with a priest. Anita took to her Instagram handle and shared that she and her husband are delighted to share that they bought a home in Los Angeles. Anita added that she fell in love with the property as soon as she stepped into the house and immediately wrote an offer. The post read:
"We are so excited to share that we bought a home in Los Angeles earlier this month! Our agent, @brooke.elliott.laurinkus, said she had an amazing 'off-market' property that she really wanted us to see. The moment I walked into the home, I absolutely fell in love with the features, especially the view of the Pacific Ocean. We knew it was 'the one' and decided to write an offer on it immediately.
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."
She further shared that being a real estate developer herself she believes that every house carries certain energy and every property has a history that they may or may not know about. Anita added that being a Hindu, it's customary to seek the blessings of God whenever a new property is bought. She further added that she chose to honour the positive energy of the previous owner and pay her respect to his immense talent. She wrote:

We chose to honour 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."

Anita said she’ll keep some of Matthew Perry’s updates in the house and add her touches to make it her ideal vacation home. She even playfully commented that she plans to keep the 'Batman' logo in the pool. Matthew Perry had just completed his 3,500-square-foot midcentury home transformation before his demise in 2023. One major addition was a pool with a connected hot tub. Anita concluded the post by wishing everyone a happy Diwali. She wrote:
"We do plan to keep some of the design elements. The batman logo in the pool is definitely staying. It's a piece of paradise that is filled with light and the perfect vacation home for us. Can't wait to make new memories in it. Wish you all a very Happy Diwali!! May the new year be flowing with peace, joy, and prosperity"
