Bhagyashree may have made Mumbai her home decades after stepping into Bollywood, but the grandeur of her royal upbringing remains evident in her luxurious residence. Born into the royal family of Sangli, the Maine Pyar Kiya actor has created a home that brings together traditional elegance, contemporary luxury and deeply personal family memories.From a dramatic black entrance door and statement walls to plush velvet seating, chandeliers, a private temple and expansive outdoor spaces, every corner of Bhagyashree’s Mumbai home has a distinctive character. However, the most unusual and meaningful feature of the property is a naturally formed Ganesha on a tree — a sight that, according to the actor, was the reason she and her husband, Himalaya Dassani, decided to buy the house.
Bhagyashree’s Mumbai home has a grand entrance
The house opens to a spacious pathway leading towards the parking area, surrounded by lush greenery. A striking black entrance door with intricate patterns on both sides immediately sets the tone for the interiors.Inside, the foyer features a statement white wall covered in an elaborate textured pattern. A console table placed against the wall displays ornate decorative pieces, including a silver elephant that adds to the home’s regal aesthetic.The foyer leads into the living area, where plush brown sofas are paired with crisp white cushions. The earthy palette gives the room a warm, sophisticated appearance while the lighter accents keep the space bright.
The dining space in earthy tones at Bhagyashree’s home
The dining room continues the home’s signature palette of off-white, brown and black. At the centre sits an off-white dining table styled with silver tableware, while the surrounding chairs bring together shades of grey, black and white in a striking pattern.Across from the dining area, a staircase leads to another sitting zone where the family entertains friends and relatives. “This is where we host our friends and do all the gossip,” Bhagyashree told Farah Khan on her YouTube vlog.The home has several such intimate seating areas. One particularly striking corner features a plush green velvet sofa placed against a richly textured wooden-brown wall, with surrounding plants bringing a touch of nature to the dramatic setting.
The Ganesha that made Bhagyashree and husband Himalaya buy the house
While the interiors are undoubtedly luxurious, the most meaningful feature of Bhagyashree’s home is found outdoors. Speaking to Farah Khan on her YouTube channel, the actor revealed the rather unusual reason she and Himalaya decided to buy the property. “We bought this house only because we saw a Ganesha here,” she said.At the back of the house stands a tree whose naturally formed trunk bears an uncanny resemblance to the face of Lord Ganesha, with naturally occurring features resembling eyes and an elephant’s trunk. “This was entirely natural, the tusk was added by Himalaya,” Bhagyashree revealed.The property looked very different when the couple first bought it, prompting an extensive renovation that completely transformed the interiors. “This place was nothing like it before. We had to break down every single wall of this house,” she said.
A private temple and party-ready outdoors at Bhagyashree’s home
From the rear section of the property, black stairs lead up towards Bhagyashree’s temple. The outdoor area also doubles as an elegant entertaining space when the family hosts parties, with aesthetic seating, floral decorations and chandeliers transforming it into a warm and glamorous setting for celebrations. “Upstairs we have the temple, then terrace, and a bedroom,” Bhagyashree explained.The outdoor space also features a striking white artwork enclosed in a black frame, while large plants add abundant greenery and soften the property’s more dramatic architectural elements. Farah Khan was clearly impressed by the home, telling Bhagyashree, “To have a home like this in Bombay, one has to be extremely lucky. And you are lucky.”
An all-white kitchen with a view
While much of the house is designed around a sophisticated combination of white, brown, black and grey, the kitchen takes a completely different approach. The recently renovated space is predominantly white, reflecting Bhagyashree’s preference for a bright and airy aesthetic. “I got it renovated recently. It had been many years. People usually like kitchens in darker colours, but I really like this white, light colour combination,” she said.The kitchen’s biggest luxury, however, isn’t its colour palette. In a city like Mumbai, where space and ventilation can be hard to come by, the room offers both in abundance, along with a beautiful view. Farah summed up the appeal of the space, saying, “This is a dream to have a kitchen like this.”
Bhagyashree’s home is filled with family memories
Despite its luxurious interiors, Bhagyashree’s home remains deeply personal. One section has been dedicated to a memory wall, featuring photographs of the actor and her family, with a staircase beside it leading to the first floor where the bedrooms are located. There is also a dedicated open space that doubles as Bhagyashree’s personal workout and yoga area, featuring marble flooring, a textured brown wall and a striking red sofa, the very space from which she often shares glimpses of her fitness routine.
Bhagyashree’s recent workfront
On the work front, Bhagyashree was last seen playing Jijabai in Riteish Deshmukh’s ‘Raja Shivaji’ and appeared alongside Jackie Shroff in ‘The Great Grand Superhero: Aliens Ka Aagman’.
