Sneak Peek: We take you inside Gauri and Shah Rukh Khan's gorgeous home 'Mannat'

12 Apr, 2017

Shah Rukh Khan's beautiful home 'Mannat' befits his status of royalty. We take you inside one of the most artistic and gorgeous bungalows of Mumbai!

Actor Shah Rukh Khan is not the Baadshah of Bollywood, he is also the Baadshah of prime real estate in Mumbai. And his pride and glory is his sprawling bungalow in Land's End, 'Mannat.'

Known for its sea-facing facade in Bandra, its heritage status and of course, the fact that India's most famous name lives in this building, Mannat has become a tourist spot. Many of Shah Rukh's fans gather outside his home to get a glimpse of the star and sometimes even his family.

Naturally, its occupants make the house what it is today. But we cannot forego the fact that Mannat may be Shah Rukh's desire, it is his wife Gauri's baby. She designed the interiors of the house that is today considered an epitome of artistic abode in India.

While Gauri opened the doors of her 'humble' abode for an architectural magazine sometime back, she has again given her fans a glimpse of her personal walk-in wardrobe.

For those who may have missed the exclusive pictures, here's a sneak peek inside Mannat and its glorious history.

Valued at almost Rs 200 crores today, Mannat was initially a small bungalow called 'Villa Vienna’ and owned by Kekoo Gandhy, a Parsi man, of Gujarati origin.

Gandy's family and close one's passed on the property to one Nariman Dubash. It was Dubash who Shah Rukh personally went to meet to buy Villa Vienna. Given its prime location Khan agree to pay Rs 13.32 crore and got it on lease from Dubash.

Once he purchased the plot after paying a one-time occupancy fee, he was able to construct more levels and Mannat today has six floors.

While Shah Rukh is known to come out to greet his fans once a week or whenever he is available, he often throws Mannat's doors open for them on special days like Eid.

Gauri gave us a special preview of the entire front facade in the architectural magazine and one can see the entire family including Khan's sister Shehnaz Lalarukh coming out to greet fans.

Now Gauri Khan is known to have a flair for interior design and she loves designing spaces so it wasn't a surprise that she started with Mannat.

In fact, her love for designs started from home. In an interview once she revealed, "It all started when I began doing up the interiors of my home, Mannat, alongside our architect. We had invited a few friends over for the housewarming and they absolutely loved what I had done with my place!"

She added that this made her think more seriously about taking on some of the offers she had; to start doing it professionally, since design-based projects interested her. "That led to the formation of the Gauri Khan Design Studio. It’s now evolved into two stores in Mumbai and one in Defence Colony, Delhi," she said.

Most of the rooms in Mannat have been designed keeping the couple's personal choices of art in mind. So there is a lot of black and red, colours which are both loved by Shah Rukh and Gauri personally.

Talking about designing spaces and the inspirations she said, "A well-designed home is a place where you’re comfortable. Design should revolve around what the main purpose of the space is. If you plan to live there, it should reflect your personality."

One can see a reflection of quaint complexity and warmth in the way Gauri has designed Mannat. She also kept a focus on decor which is clearly an integral part of the house and includes wall art and deco pieces splashed across.

She also loves antiques and her house is certainly a reflection of the same. "I absolutely love antiques from anywhere in the world," revealed Gauri who in a career span of just four years has managed to bag many design projects.

While during her magazine shoot, Gauri gave fans a peek into a rustic walk-in closet, she recently shared (pic left) a more modern walk-in space through her Twitter handle.

Sharing the picture, she wrote, "The ability to have a whole room or closet to put all ur clothes in an organised style. My pick,walk-in wardrobe."

It sure looks super organised, with a separate makeup space and areas for clothes as well as accessories.

The sprawling bungalow that today has five primary occupants Shah Rukh, Gauri, Suhana and Abram (Aryan is studying in the US) and Lalarukh. Naturally, apart from the artistic abode, it also caters to the daily needs of its occupants.

With a built-in gym, swimming pool and laws this 2,446 sq. metre (26, 328.52 sq. ft.) sea facing property becomes one of the most lavish and perhaps most artistically done-up homes in Mumbai.

But let's not forget, it's all because this yummy mummy was ready to experiment with regular design and add a touch of her own personality.

As Gauri puts it, "I have always had an inclination towards design. Luxury and style have been key elements in all my projects. I have a passion for design — be it a line of clothes or taking a gut decision with unique pieces of furniture, one should always be willing to experiment."
