After Season 8 of Married to Medicine documented Anila Sajja’s lengthy home-building process, Anila told BravoTV.com in April 2021 that although the construction was complete, there were just a few more things she and her family were “waiting on to get finished.” More than a year later, on the show’s July 10 Season 9 premiere, Anila had an exciting update to share. 

How to Watch

Watch Married to Medicine now streaming on Peacock and the Bravo App.

“We are finally in our new house,” she declared in an interview. “Building the house was like a struggle. I mean, three-year struggle. It was painful.”

Anila’s husband, Kiran Sajja, had similar feelings about creating the 14,000-square-foot abode. “If I could sum up building the house in one word, it would be ‘regret,’” he said. “I regret that we spent a hell of a lot more money than we were supposed to spend.”

“Hell of a lot,” indeed. As Anila explained, “The original budget was 1.5 million [dollars].” However, “It went to 2.2 [million], and then 2.5 [million].” Still, she thinks Kiran is ultimately pleased with the results. “Maybe he’s not happy about the overspending,” she said, “but he’s happy that his wife and kids are in a beautiful home.”

To that, Kiran joked, “Yes, I’m happy for you guys.”
