'Kareena and Saif's new house is classic, colonial and timeless, just like them' ambica@khaleejtimes.com Filed on February 17, 2021 Darshini Shah, the interior designer who has styled the Bollywood couple’s new 4-floor residence in Mumbai gives us a sneak peek into the cozy space When you are tasked with putting together an abode fit for Bollywood royalty like Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan, one would expect opulence to override other design elements. But for Darshini Shah, an interior designer with over 13 years of experience in the field, who had designed the couple's first home together, it was only a matter of replicating the previous design aesthetic but, admittedly, on a much larger scale. The Bollywood actors’ new abode in Mumbai spans four floors and has been landscaped with balconies and terraces to bring the outdoor element in and provide a cosy, intimate space for the celebrity couple. Darshini, who was recently lauded with the AD100 Award by Architectural Digest India for being among the top 100 Architects and interior designers for the third consecutive year from the Indian subcontinent, confesses it was a challenge to make the new home as warm and cozy as their previous one, considering the scale of the new place. We catch up with the designer and stylist who has worked on residences for Imtiaz Ali, Katrina Kaif and Karthik Aaryan, and significantly also on the restoration of the famous Pataudi Palace to find out what goes into creating a warm, intimate living space for a couple used to living their life under the public glare.
