Painted in the soothing hues of white and blue and adorned with various plants outside, the interiors of Nawazuddin’s home feature several paintings and numerous books. In the conversation, the 50-year-old discussed that he never dreamt of purchasing a house or car. However, as he had studied architecture and aesthetics during his time at the National School of Drama, the actor shared that his interest in designing his home was piqued for this reason. In his words:
“The entire design is mine. It’s not like a dream house. I never dreamt of having a house. Honestly, I never had any dreams of having houses or cars. As I have studied design, at the National School of Drama, we have studied architecture and aesthetics, so I have a little sense of designing. So, I started getting interested in it, then I did not compromise on anything.”
Nawazuddin further revealed that he would sketch the pillars and arches of his home and personally order all the necessary items for construction. The actor also talked about various home decor. He mentioned that the posters on his wall signify all the plays he did earlier. Nawazuddin shared that the corridors of NSD, too, had posters of various plays on the wall.
