One-half of Bollywood's power couple Gauri Khan reveals details of her New Delhi home and why she and her husband Shah Rukh Khan decided to open it for Airbnb guests
On November 18, 2020, Bollywood royalty Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan became the first Bollywood hosts on Airbnb as they opened the doors to their New Delhi home, offering guests the rare opportunity to immerse in the nostalgia of their lives together.
Located in the leafy neighbourhood of Panchsheel Park in South Delhi, the Khan’s home is exquisitely designed in Gauri’s warm, inimitable style. Though they now reside in Mumbai, their Delhi home still holds a special place in their hearts as they raised their three children there and continue to use the property when visiting the capital city. Filled with personal keepsakes and mementos from their many travels around the world, the Khan home is a reflection of Shah Rukh and Gauri’s journey together, first as a couple, then as a family.

An oasis of peace in bustling Delhi, the Khan home (on Airbnb, it's listed as 'Gauri & Shah Rukh Khan's Delhi Home') is marked by bold hues, an abundance of warm, natural light from many windows, and an impressive art collection. Richly textured walls, colorful tapestries, and glittering chandeliers cast an inviting glow. Floor-to-ceiling French doors open to an expansive garden filled with flowers of many hues. The most telling design element, however, is a deeply personal aesthetic that captures the family’s many memories over the years.
