Farah Khan Explores Ranveer Allahbadia's Luxurious Apartment and Podcast Studio
In a recent vlog, filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan featured popular podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, offering viewers an intimate look into his personal and professional spaces. During their engaging conversation, Ranveer opened up about a challenging phase in his career, marked by a court order that temporarily suspended his podcast following the controversy surrounding Samay Raina's India's Got Latent. He humorously referred to the entire incident as a "kaand," highlighting the resilience required in the media industry.
A Glimpse into Ranveer Allahbadia's Spacious Home
As Farah Khan entered Ranveer's apartment, she was immediately struck by its grandeur. The open-plan design seamlessly blended the dining and living areas, creating a sense of spaciousness. Impressed by the scale of the home, Farah turned to her cook, Dilip, and joked, "He got such a big house by doing podcast. How big a house can we get if we also start a podcast." The living room featured a striking blue sofa positioned opposite a massive television, while the true highlight was a vast balcony adorned with lush green plants and comfortable seating. In contrast, the dining corner exuded simplicity with its neat grey-and-beige furniture, showcasing a minimalist aesthetic.
Inside the Iconic Podcast Studio
Farah was then given a tour of Ranveer's dedicated podcast studio, where he records episodes of The Ranveer Show. She described the setup as "iconic" and inquired if the India's Got Latent controversy had unfolded while he was living in the same house, asking, "Ye kand kab hua tha?" Ranveer reflected that the home had served as both a lucky charm and a silent witness to the highs and lows of his career, emphasizing its significance in his journey.
Ranveer Allahbadia's Minimalist Bedroom and Stylish Closet
Ranveer also showed Farah his bedroom, which features a separate entrance and inspirational words like "Joy," "Providence," and "Blessing" displayed on the walls. The space embraces a minimalist design, centered around a simple bed that offers a direct view of the balcony. Farah praised Ranveer for maintaining such tidiness, to which he explained that a lamp is always kept lit in his bedroom to purify the room's energy. Additionally, Farah glimpsed his well-organized walk-in closet, where jackets, outfits, and accessories were neatly arranged. In a sweet gesture, Ranveer gifted one of his goggles to Dilip during the tour.
Reflections on the India's Got Latent Controversy
During their chat, Farah questioned Ranveer about the aftermath of the India's Got Latent controversy, where one of his remarks sparked backlash, leading to multiple legal cases and a temporary halt to his podcast. Reflecting on that difficult period, Ranveer shared, "My podcast was stopped after that, I had to bear a lot. I just pray from God to just return me my work. I just wanted opportunity to work because we were not even able to shoot." He expressed gratitude for the support he received during this time.
Celebrity Support During Tough Times
Ranveer recalled that several well-known figures from the film and sports industries reached out to him for support following the controversy. These included John Abraham and Indian cricketers such as Hardik Pandya, KL Rahul, and Yuzvendra Chahal, as well as singer Sonu Nigam. Sharing a piece of advice, Farah told him, "Never waste a good failure, always work from it. Put your head down and work." Ranveer responded, "John Abraham sir called me and said the same thing. He had called specially. He told me to handle myself and told me that this is normal in the media." This support network played a crucial role in helping him navigate the challenges.
Light-Hearted Moments and Film Appreciation
Amid the serious discussions, there were light-hearted moments as well. Ranveer revealed his admiration for Farah Khan's directorial work, particularly the film 'Tees Maar Khan,' which he said he truly enjoyed. Although the movie did not perform well at the box office, Farah recalled that time with a laugh, saying, "Jab release hue thi tab band baja di thi. I asked myself, 'How can I go so wrong?' Because I found it so funny. Now Gen Z is appreciating it." This exchange highlighted the evolving appreciation for creative works over time.
