Anand complemented her in a blue crew neck T-shirt featuring a baggy silhouette and half-length sleeves. He paired it with black straight-leg pants, chunky sneakers, a backswept hairdo, and a salt-and-pepper beard.

About the couple

Sonam and Anand tied the knot in May 2018. The couple tied the knot in a traditional ceremony. They welcomed their son, Vayu, in August 2022. Recently, Sonam and Anand, who owns the apparel company Bhaane, acquired Rhythm House for ₹47.80 crore from fugitive diamantaire Nirav Modi.

The well-loved store, which opened in 1940, not only stocked some of the best music in Mumbai but also served as a listening post for all that was going on in the music industry. After the emergence of digital platforms, the store shut shop in March 2016. The following year, Nirav Modi’s Firestar Diamond purchased the property from the Curmally family, who owned Rhythm House for ₹32 crore. The plan was to convert the music store into a luxury jewellery showroom.

Now, the store, which has been shuttered for over eight years was acquired by Bhaane—a subsidiary of Shahi Exports—in a recent auction. A company spokesperson confirmed the transaction and said the premise will be used to expand their retail presence in Mumbai. “We have completed our due diligence and plan to expand our retail presence in the city. As a private company, we are unable to comment on any financial information,” read a company statement.
