Why Did Gauri Khan Rent an Apartment for Her Staff?

The move comes after SRK and family rented two duplex apartments in Mumbai’s upscale Pali Hill area in Bandra for INR 8.67 crore for three years (INR 2.9 crore per year), and moved there recently. SRK's iconic sea-facing mansion Mannat is undergoing major renovation, and the family has vacated their Bandra Bandstand bungalow for the time being. These swanky duplexes, totalling more than 10,500 square feet, now serve as the temporary residence of the Khan family, while Mannat gets a glamorous upgrade.

With limited funds back then for interior design, he turned to Gauri, asking her to take charge of designing the house. Her eye for design and creative flair turned their dream house into a reality — and even led her into the world of interior design professionally, he shared. From handpicking leather for sofas in South Africa to spending her limited foreign exchange on decorative pieces, Gauri built Mannat piece by piece.

Now, as the Mannat enters its next phase of transformation, the Khan family is once again embracing change — with style.
