Mumbai is home to the biggest celebrities of Bollywood. From Khans to the Bachchans, here is a look at 5 magnificent homes of stars that have become a landmark location in the city.
Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Jalsa’
Amitabh Bachchan's two-storey bungalow is located in Mumbai's Juhu. The much-loved celebrity home has been named Jalsa, which means 'celebration.' It is the residence of not just Big B and Jaya, but also their son Abhishek Bachchan, daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and granddaughter Aaradhya Bachchan.
The iconic house was gifted to the superstar by director Ramesh Sippy as a remuneration for his work in 'Satte Pe Satta'.
As per a report in ‘India TV’, ‘Jalsa’ is valued at around ₹120 crores.
Pre-COVID, Big B used to greet fans who gathered outside his home every Sunday. The actor was often accompanied by family members.
Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Mannat’
Mannat, the most recognisable landmark of Bandra, is home to Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri. Almost every day, fans gather outside this residence to catch a glimpse of King Khan. Mannat has a heavenly sea-view and its interiors are filled with a conflux of design styles - Italian, neo-classical and Indian.
Gauri Khan, who has her own design company, along with architect-designer Kaif Faquih, has made Mannat an astounding home of personal style and elegance.
John Abraham’s ‘Villa In The Sky'
John Abraham’s ‘Villa In The Sky' is located in the plush area of Bandra. The entire villa has been designed by none other than John’s father Abraham John and brother Alan Abraham, along with Anca Florescu and Aahita Shivdasani.
The breath-taking view of the Arabian Sea is one of the biggest attractions of the house. The surreal beauty of John’s ‘Villa In The Sky’ can be gauged from the fact that it had bagged the Best Home Award from the Indian Institute of Architectural Design a few years back.

Salman Khan has been staying in a 1 BHK apartment in Bandra's Galaxy Apartments for over 40 years now. It is said that while Salman Khan stays alone on the ground floor of the building, rest of his family members stay on the first and second floor.
The actor's house is L-shaped comprising a living room-cum-dining area that is separated by a glass wall. The minimally done interiors of Salman's house makes it look very spacious.
