In a YouTube video shared by Magicbricks on December 3, 2025, Nikhil Kamath's mother, Revathi Kamath, gave a tour of her Bengaluru home full of greenery, simplicity, and traditional Indian decor. From her cherished veena lounge to the parijata tree in her garden, here's a look inside her home.
Inside Revathi Kamath's spacious yet simple home
Revathi Kamath, an environmentalist, landscaper, philanthropist, and mother of Zerodha founders Nithin and Nikhil Kamath, prioritised greenery, creating purpose-designated spaces, and simplicity when building her home.
According to her, when her family moved to this home, the land was a coconut garden; she preserved most of it, replanted some in another area, and the ones she could not protect gave way to new plant species.
As for the decor, the facade combines modern minimalist luxury with a classic South Indian home by incorporating cream walls, dark wooden panelling, manicured lawns, a green pool with koi fish swimming in it, an exaggeratedly sloped clay tile roof, floor-to-ceiling windows of wood and glass that let natural light in, and spacious balconies.
The decor
Inside the Kamath home is a mindfully designed space that prioritises minimalism and elegant decor, featuring neutral white-painted walls, linen curtains, vintage wooden cabinets adorned with awards the family has won, wood-panelled walls decorated with personal memorabilia, paintings featuring Indian gods, and more indoor plants.
A few other key decor details include false ceilings, an open floor plan, an open modular kitchen, a cosy dining area, a sitting area with a neutral-tone couch, and a veena lounge where Revathi Kamath enjoys music and playing the veena.
