Anupam Kher recalls shooting 'Dil' and 'Beta' at Mannat; Actor says he knew every inch of Shah Rukh Khan's home

Shah Rukh Khan's Mannat remains one of the most recognised celebrity homes in Mumbai. Over the years, the sea-facing bungalow has become closely linked with the superstar and his family. Fans often gather outside the residence, making it one of the most visited celebrity landmarks in the city. However, long before the property became known as Mannat, the bungalow had already built a different relationship with the film industry.During the 1980s and 1990s, several Hindi film productions used the property for shooting schedules. The location became familiar to many actors and filmmakers because of its appearance in numerous projects. The bungalow witnessed several memorable scenes and movie moments during those years. It remained an active filming location before eventually becoming Shah Rukh Khan's residence.Veteran actor Anupam Kher recently spoke with ANI about his experiences connected to the property. He reflected on the time when he worked there during film shoots. The actor recalled being very familiar with the location and shared that he spent considerable time there while filming projects. He recalled, “We did the shooting of Indra Kumar's 'Dil' in a bungalow, which is now owned by Shah Rukh Khan. I know every inch of that place before it became Mannat. Even after that, I have been to Shah Rukh's house. I remember shooting a lot of scenes in the bungalow's drawing room. We had also shot Beta over there.”'Dil' and 'Beta' later emerged as major films and enjoyed success after release. Both movies also featured Madhuri Dixit in important roles. The films continue to remain popular among audiences even today. The fact that parts of these projects were shot at the bungalow adds another chapter to the property's cinematic history. Apart from these films, the location also reportedly appeared in other projects during that period.During the conversation, Anupam Kher also reflected on his association with Shah Rukh Khan. The two actors have worked together in multiple successful films over the years. The actor spoke warmly about the memories he shares with Shah Rukh through various projects. He said, “I have great memories of working with Shah Rukh Khan. Whether it was 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge', 'Chaahat', or 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'. I have great memories.” Shah Rukh Khan later purchased the bungalow and transformed it into Mannat. Over the years, it evolved into one of Mumbai's most recognised celebrity addresses.Coming to the work front, SRK will be next seen in 'King'.
