Recently, filmmaker Farah Khan visited the residence of actor and politician Manoj Tiwari in Delhi, accompanied by her longtime chef, Dilip. The Member of Parliament graciously welcomed them and guided them through his uniquely styled home, where each room is named after various states and cities. Manoj remarked, \u201cI am at the most unique address in India,\u201d alluding to the famous location of 11 Murti. With a smile, he added, \u201cNow that you are here, I will show you the Kashmir of our house.\u201d<\/p>\n
Farah, intrigued, inquired about the location of this special room. Manoj explained that each room is dedicated to different states and cities, starting with the \u201cKashmir\u201d room. This space featured a yellow sofa set, various awards, decorative items, and walls adorned with Madhubani paintings. Manoj shared the story behind the room\u2019s name: \u201cWhen this room was constructed, I was on a trip to Srinagar. Upon my return, the CPWD handed it over to me, and I decided to name it Kashmir.\u201d<\/p>\n
Curious about the other themed rooms, Farah asked about them. Manoj listed some of them, saying, \u201cWe have Ranthambore, Patna, and Benaras.\u201d<\/p>\n
Next, they proceeded to the \u201cRanthambore\u201d room, a cozy sitting area decorated with light grey sofas and cushions in blue and pink hues, alongside photographs, including some featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Manoj explained its significance: \u201cWe had a brainstorming session in Ranthambore with friends from Delhi regarding potential improvements. When I got back, this room was ready for me, so I named it Ranthambore.\u201d<\/p>\n
Farah playfully asked if there was a room dedicated to Paris. Manoj chuckled and replied, \u201cNo, but we do have one named Mumbai\u2014Lokhandwala.\u201d During the home tour, Farah also met Manoj\u2019s wife, Surbhi, and greeted her warmly. \u201cI was thinking of calling you Surbhi ji, but since you are so young, I will just call you Surbhi,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
They then explored the \u201cLokhandwala\u201d room, which featured off-white sofas and a harmonium on a side table, where Manoj practices singing with his wife. He explained, \u201cI have a cot in my house in Mumbai, and I kept one here as well because I believe in simple living. This setup reminds me of our home in Mumbai, so I named it Lokhandwala.\u201d<\/p>\n
At one point, Farah reminisced about Manoj\u2019s film, Sasura Bada Paisawala, and joked with Surbhi, \u201cSo, are your in-laws wealthy?\u201d Surbhi laughed and pointed at Manoj, saying, \u201cHe is the one who is more loaded.\u201d<\/p>\n
Farah expressed her admiration for Manoj, stating, \u201cI have been a fan of Manoj Tiwari since his time on Bigg Boss. That show opened doors for him across India.\u201d<\/p>\n
The next stop was a room named \u201cKeshav Kunj.\u201d Upon hearing the name, Farah joked, \u201cDilip, did you notice? We are getting a world tour right here in Delhi.\u201d The gold-toned room is designated for meetings related to the RSS and features numerous artworks created by fans. Surbhi mentioned they even allocate space in each of their homes to store such gifts.<\/p>\n
When Farah inquired about their real estate holdings, Surbhi answered, \u201cWe have homes in Benaras, Bombay, Delhi, and Bihar.\u201d<\/p>\n
Discussing his role as a politician, Manoj shared, \u201cIt\u2019s very busy. Unlike in films, I wake up every day with new stresses. I represent 7 million people\u2014I cannot afford to say I don\u2019t have time. I\u2019ve set aside Mondays and Tuesdays for public meetings, where at least 400 people visit daily with their concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n
The tour continued into the garden, where Manoj noted, \u201cI have personally maintained the lawn and planted all these trees myself, including mango and guava trees that can thrive in your home.\u201d<\/p>\n
Inside the main living area, Farah remarked that the space was large enough to fit an entire apartment from Mumbai. She interacted with Manoj\u2019s daughters, commenting on the elder one, \u201cThis girl will either become the Prime Minister or the President.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the dining area, which was decorated with family photographs, fan art, and a set of swords gifted by admirers, Farah exclaimed, \u201cHow big is this house?\u201d Upon noticing the swords, she quickly asked, \u201cWhat are these for?\u201d Manoj explained, \u201cThey are all gifts from fans.\u201d Amused, Farah quipped, \u201cYou could start your own museum.\u201d<\/p>\n
The visit concluded in the kitchen, where Manoj prepared a traditional Bihari dish\u2014chuda and matar. During the cooking, he addressed a long-standing rumor from Bigg Boss: \u201cI never stole eggs. Khali ate them all; I just hid my share.\u201d He mentioned this after Dilip playfully accused him of egg theft during the reality show.<\/p>\n
