Many changes were made to the temple over a period of time to accommodate the growing population. Later, the actual temple was built which was twice the size of the house. When the saint fell ill, he stayed back in the house and he was buried in the house, after his death. The house was used as a rest home for the saint and it was built by a multimillionaire from Nagpur, Gopalrao Booty.
Sai Baba planted saplings around the home and watered them. The temple holding his tomb was constructed at a large private house, which was built when he was alive.
