Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic residence Mannat is one of Mumbai’s most recognisable landmarks today, but owning a home like it was once beyond the superstar’s dreams. The actor recently looked back at buying his first property with wife Gauri Khan and revealed how Mannat, too, was beyond their means. He also spoke about his dream of owning a house in every city.

Shah Rukh Khan on Mannat

Shah Rukh attended a Danube Properties launch event in Dubai and spoke about buying his first property with Gauri and shared how Mannat was beyond their dreams. He said, “There are good days, bad days, some wonderful days and some very depressing days. When you finally come knocking, you need to come back to your own home because you regenerate there, you figure things out and go back to face the harsh realities of the world. The first house that Gauri and I bought was beyond our means; the last house, Mannat, that we bought was also beyond our means. But I want to tell everyone that when you want to buy your dream house, Allah helps you; God helps you. If you pray to God for a house, you'll get the most beautiful house in your life because the Almighty will always give you the house of your dreams. Just trust in yourself and God.”
