Union Minister Nitin Gadkari
From gobar-painted walls and handcrafted woodwork to folk art accents, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari’s Delhi bungalow reflects his affinity for indigenous practices.
Recently featured on director-choreographer Farah Khan’s YouTube cooking channel, the bungalow stands apart as a compelling example of timeless Indian elegance. Rooted in heritage yet effortlessly functional, the residence reflects the warmth, authority, and cultural depth of a luxurious and traditional Indian home.
Adding to its charm are 17 peacocks that roam freely through the garden, often wandering into the neighbouring bungalows of Sonia Gandhi and Manmohan Singh, along with an organic farm that supplies fresh fruits and vegetables.

The bungalow, reminiscent of a classic Lutyens-style home, boasts high ceilings, expansive hallways, and lush garden spaces. The first glimpse of the residence sets the tone: grand wooden doors flanked by stone and bronze sculptures, create a stately, vintage aura, while potted plants soften the space, adding calm and balance.

Inside, Indian craftsmanship takes centre stage. Madhubani and Tanjore paintings, classic brass wall lamps, intricately carved wooden sculptures, and maximalist framed mirrors showcase the richness of Indian art forms. Soft, earthy tones anchor the interiors, lending an open and serene quality. Royal wooden sofas with contrasting blue upholstery add warmth and a subtle regal touch. Captivating paintings and sculptures of Lord Krishna, Hanuman, and other deities adorn the walls alongside an extensive collection of Indian folk art. The tricolour flag adds a patriotic note, further personalizing the space.

Every corner of the house tells a story. Side tables display carefully chosen artefacts, one featuring a miniature wooden ship, another a bronze sculpture of Lord Krishna playing the flute. A dedicated cupboard houses a collection of souvenirs, turning the residence into a curated archive of memories.
Heritage inspiration runs consistently throughout the bungalow. Dark wood panelling, rich textures, and traditional materials define the interiors, evoking a sense of authority befitting the occupant.
The conference room reinforces this dignified atmosphere. Designed with wooden panelling and walls painted using cow dung, it reflects Gadkari’s commitment to environmentally responsible choices without compromising on aesthetics.
The Dining and Kitchen

Two concealed, cupboard-style doors open directly into the kitchen, ensuring ease of movement and efficiency during mealtimes. The space is anchored by rich dark wood, thoughtfully balanced with soothing colour accents. A spacious dining area that comfortably seats up to 16 people features accent wooden chairs and a well-planned layout ideal for hosting.

The kitchen itself is simple yet highly functional, with stone countertops, wooden basket storage for vegetables, and lofty ceilings that enhance ventilation and natural airflow. Elegant and understated, the space seamlessly complements the home’s overall aesthetic.
Overall, Nitin Gadkari’s bungalow feels more like a living museum, an enduring celebration of Indian heritage, cultural grandeur and thoughtful living.
