Raj Kapoor’s Peshawar Haveli suffers damage after rains, quake

A portion of the historic haveli of legendary Bollywood actor Raj Kapoor collapsed in Peshawar reportedly due to recent heavy rains followed by a strong earthquake on Friday night, officials and local residents said. According to PTI, the century-old Kapoor Haveli, a significant cultural site in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province that was declared national heritage by the Pakistan government in 2016, suffered structural damage after continuous rains weakened the building, while tremors late Friday further destabilised its already dilapidated structure.
