Shah Rukh Khan to unveil Dubai's 55-storey business tower named after him

Dubai is set for a splash of Bollywood star power and big-ticket real estate ambition as Danube Properties prepares to unveil ‘Shahrukhz by Danube’, a premium commercial tower named after actor Shah Rukh Khan. The launch event will be held at the Dubai Exhibition Centre, Expo City, South Halls, on Tuesday, and will be attended by Khan along with Rizwan Sajan, founder and chairman of the Danube Group.

Rising 55 storeys on Sheikh Zayed Road, the tower is being pitched as one of Dubai’s most prestigious new business addresses. Aimed at global entrepreneurs and corporate leaders, the project also marks what Danube calls a shared milestone of 33 years of professional excellence for both the brand and the actor, built around themes of resilience, reinvention and long-term success.

Speaking ahead of the launch, Sajan said Dubai’s growth would continue to push real estate demand.

He noted that the city’s population, currently estimated at around four million, is expected to rise sharply by 2050. Development, he added, will remain fast-paced, with Dubai property prices still more competitive than markets such as Gurugram and Mumbai, making it an attractive investment destination.

Spread over more than one million square feet of built-up area, Shahrukhz by Danube is being positioned as an iconic commercial development blending luxury design with high-end business infrastructure. Unit prices start at Rs 4.2 crore, with the project aimed at setting a new benchmark in Dubai’s premium commercial property space.

The tower promises more than 40 amenities, including a sky pool, helipad designed for air taxis, valet services and exclusive business lounges. Its location is being highlighted as a major advantage, offering easy access to key destinations, including the Burj Khalifa and Dubai International Airport.

Danube is also pushing its signature one per cent monthly payment plan with the project, a model that has helped the developer build a strong buyer base in the UAE by making high-value real estate more accessible without diluting on luxury or location.

Danube Properties, a subsidiary of the Danube Group, is among the UAE’s leading private real estate developers. Founded by Rizwan Sajan in 1993, the group has launched 40 projects so far, with 18 already delivered and the rest at different stages of construction.
