‘I drove cabs for three years, night shift for 15 to 16 hours, in Melbourne’: Take a tour of Randeep Hooda’s Mumbai home

What strikes first is the gym that greets you right in the living room. “This was a flat that I had bought long ago and it was lying empty. So during the pandemic, because all the gyms closed, I made a gym over here."

In the heart of Mumbai, where high-rise towers often blur into sameness, Randeep Hooda’s flat—correction, his “den”, as he called it before getting married to his wife Lin Laishram—stands out for its soul.

What strikes first is the gym that greets you right in the living room. “This was a flat that I had bought long ago and it was lying empty. So during the pandemic, because all the gyms closed, I made a gym over here,” he shares. But it’s not just biceps and barbells. “Basically, this is just my bar, my study, and the gym.”

The setup is personal. “My other friends also use my gym. So a lot of people have the keys to this house to use it. That’s why you call it the den,” Randeep adds, explaining the communal vibe. He even pulled out the television to cut down on distractions: “There used to be a big TV here as well, which I removed because I didn’t want one here… all we did was watch IPL.”
