Gauri Khan, the first lady of Bollywood, is recognized for juggling a number of successful careers while also co-founding Red Chillies Entertainment with her husband, star Shah Rukh Khan. She is also one of the country’s most well-known designers, having worked on Mukesh Ambani’s and a slew of Bollywood stars’ private residences. To give you some ideas, we’ve included five celebrity residences and one vanity vehicle that she’s created throughout the years. Mannat, of course, is missing from this list because she has her own wonderful house.

Gauri Khan designed Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor’s house, which has imposing light fixtures, a sumptuous suede crimson sofa, and minimal wall decals. The actor’s home is in Mumbai’s Pali Hill neighborhood and cost him Rs 35 crore — without the décor, of course.

Gauri Khan designed Sidharth Malhotra’s eclectic bachelor home, which is also located in Mumbai’s Pali Hill neighborhood, using a really creative style. The widespread use of the chevron pattern in flooring, mismatched artwork, warm-hued sofas, and complementary light fixtures are some of the most eye-catching characteristics of his house.

Karan Johar lives in a lavish apartment in Mumbai’s Bandra neighborhood. Gauri Khan created the patio as well as the children’s imaginative nursery, which is white with a burst of vibrant color. Here’s a thorough tour of his home.

Sonam Kapoor Ahuja fell in love with the surroundings of Anand Ahuja’s London apartment when they first started dating. Notting Hill is one of the city’s remaining true bohemian enclaves, and the pair have their sights set on a property amid its green stucco squares. The actor was given an unexpected chance to roost during the lockdown. “At this weird period, I was living a very local life with no aircraft or premieres,” she says, “running in Hyde Park, searching for olive oils at Portobello market, and engaging with neighbors.”

“A lot of personal objects donated to us by our moms” are among the Indian touches, according to Sonam, “bringing memories of Mumbai and Delhi to London.” “These relics, however small, have seen so many lives and offered joy to so many generations, and they have lasting beauty.” My initial impression of the Kapoor-Ahuja residence is that it is really intimate. The second is that an unbroken spirit of India has been allowed to settle, engulfing the senses like a Colaba sea mist.
