‘Main chahti thi ek room khaali ho taaki main naach sakoon’: Inside Sanya Malhotra’s chic Mumbai home | Lifestyle News

When Farah Khan steps inside actor Sanya Malhotra’s Mumbai home, she’s greeted not just with a smile, but with a full-on dance performance.“Kya baat hai! Kya baat hai! Aisa welcome hum log ne aaj tak nahi dekha hai,” exclaims Farah, half in awe, half in jest. It sets the tone for a house tour as intimate and unfiltered as it is vibrant and heartwarming.
Sanya’s living room radiates warmth and elegance. It’s bathed in a neutral colour palette—soft browns, warm beiges, and creams. Plush beige sofas, scattered with white and red throw pillows, invite you to sink in, while a brown-printed armchair adds just the right amount of texture. Floor-length curtains frame the sunlit windows, washing the room in a soft golden glow.

Near the entrance sits a wooden dining table, modest yet charming, adorned with a fresh bouquet and a lightly scented candle—small gestures that speak volumes of Sanya’s quiet love for beauty.
Farah is taken aback when she enters Sanya’s dressing room, or as she calls it, her “glam room plus workout studio.” The space is a meditative blend of vanity and vitality with a full-length mirror wall, white marble flooring, and soft spotlights.
“Kabhi dance kar liya… toh main chahti thi ek room aisa khaali ho taaki main naach sakoon,” Sanya says, revealing the room’s other life as a dance floor.

A sleek rack stacked with Filmfare and other awards glitters, while Farah playfully quips, “(Filmfare award) itne mile ki khud bhool gayi!”Story continues below this ad
Walk into Sanya’s bedroom, and it’s clear the actor values serenity. A wooden bed is dressed in striped ivory and red bedding, layered with matching cushions and pillows.
“Yeh kahaan se laayi tune bedding?” asks Farah. “H&M,” comes the reply, proving style doesn’t have to break the bank.
Wooden and white nightstands frame the bed, each topped with delicate ceramic accents. A deep red bookshelf and a handcrafted wooden frame add layers of depth, tying the room together in a harmonious blend of texture and colour.
Farah, amused and impressed, adds: “Yeh bahut unusual colours use hue hain… like brown and all—nobody normally does that!”Story continues below this ad
The corridor stands out with its rich brown accent wall, which serves as a gallery-style backdrop for a piece of art drenched in orange and blue hues. Pendant lights hang overhead, while clusters of framed photographs—some candid, some nostalgic—dot the walls. It’s in these subtle corners that Sanya’s personality truly peeks through.
“Dekho yeh cute details… yeh mirror bhi beautiful hai,” Farah remarks, walking through the home’s softly lit halls.
Whether it’s her corridor walls, her glam room, or the sun-drenched corners of her bedroom, everything in Sanya Malhotra’s home speaks of joy, self-expression, and a woman rooted in comfort and creativity.
