Bandra is not called the queen of Mumbai’s suburbs for nothing.
It is where some of Bollywood’s biggest stars live.
BollywoodPress offers a glimpse of some star homes in Bandra:
Shah Rukh Khan’s home Mannat, which faces the Bandra seafront, is an obvious tourist spot.
A sprawling bungalow, once owned by wealthy Parsis, Mannat is a heritage building. Buildings in this category are deemed important to the townscape and cannot be demolished.
Shah Rukh lives here with wife Gauri, their two children and SRK’s sister.
The superstar is currently constructing a multi-storey building behind his home (seen behind Mannat in the photograph). Some reports suggest the building will house offices for SRK and close friends Karan Johar and Farah Khan
Some buildings away from Mannat is Galaxy Apartments, where Salman Khan stays.
Salman, who obviously doesn’t care for bungalows and stuff, lives here with his parents Salim and Salma Khan, little sister Arpita, his youngest brother actor Sohail Khan, Sohail’s wife designer Seema Khan and their son.
Another brother actor Arbaaz Khan and his glamorous model wife Malaika Arora-Khan live in Khar, a suburb close to Bandra. Sister Alvira and her actor hubby Atull Agnihotri also stay close by.
Aishwarya Rai occupies the 12th floor of Lamar, a building near Bandra’s famous Mount Mary church.
Strangely, she is not the building’s best-known resident.
That distinction belongs to a certain S R Tendulkar, currently the most famous batsman on the third rock from the sun.
Ash was brought up in Khar, a suburb close to Bandra, and went to the Arya Vidya Mandir school in Bandra, where she was, we hear, a bright head girl.
