Step inside Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi's Khandala house
As one enters Javed Akhtar and Shabana's home, they are greeted by lush gardens that surround the house, planted with colourful bougainvillaeas, marigolds and other flowers, 150-year-old trees, benches made from tree trunks, and a vintage-style fountain that becomes the centrepiece of the lawn.
Arches, brick walls, pillars, large windows, a slanted roof, glass walls on the upper floors, marble statues, more greenery covering the home's walls, metal benches for tea, metal balustrades on the balcony, and vintage wall lamps make up the home's stunning facade.

The decor inside the house
The decor inside matches the home's grand exterior, making you feel as if you have stepped into a heritage hotel. A large, circular foyer welcomes one inside. It opens into a soaring atrium, capped by an elliptical dark wood ceiling, where sunlight spills over dark metal railings.
An ornate mirror, crystal wall lamps, large floor-to-ceiling windows that let in ample sunlight, a marble-wood centre table, art pieces, a vintage wall clock, and off-white walls make up the foyer's decor, which opens into a lavish dining area. The dark walnut dining table, accentuated by a crystal chandelier, wooden cabinets, and a contrasting green wall, amps up the luxurious aesthetics.
The video also gives a glimpse of Javed Akhtar's living room, featuring a brick wall, colourful couches to match the contrasting green paint on the rest of the walls, a crystal chandelier, vintage wall lamp fixtures, art pieces, and luxe carpets.
