Court Finds No Merit in Petition

The petition was filed by a Mumbai resident who challenged the permissions granted for renovation work at the actor's sea-facing bungalow in Bandra.

After hearing the matter, the Supreme Court declined to interfere with the approvals and dismissed the plea. The court also refused to halt the ongoing renovation work.

Renovation Work to Continue

With the petition dismissed, renovation at Mannat will proceed as planned.

Shah Rukh Khan, along with his wife Gauri Khan and their children Aryan, Suhana and AbRam, has temporarily shifted to a luxury apartment in Mumbai's Pali Hill area while the renovation is underway. According to reports, the actor has leased four floors of the building from film producer Vashu Bhagnani.

Why Is Mannat So Famous?

Located on Mumbai's Bandstand promenade in Bandra West, Mannat is one of the city's most iconic celebrity homes and attracts thousands of fans every year.

The Grade III heritage property was originally built in 1914 and was known as Villa Vienna before Shah Rukh Khan purchased it in 2001 and renamed it Mannat.
