Anil Kapoor recalls Shah Rukh Khan’s dream of owning a sea-facing bungalow, Mannat

Mumbai, Oct 29 : Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor has recalled how superstar Shah Rukh Khan fulfilled his long-cherished dream of owning a magnificent sea-facing bungalow in Mumbai. Kapoor said he was present when Khan purchased his iconic residence, Mannat.

Speaking on the upcoming episode of Star Plus’ show India Ke Top 1%, Kapoor shared memories of his long-standing friendship with Khan after a contestant expressed his desire to own a sea-facing house like Mannat.

Recalling their early association, Kapoor said Khan had visited him while he was shooting for Benaam Badshah. He added that he immediately sensed Khan's potential to become a major star when they first met, and their friendship grew stronger over the years.

Kapoor said they often met on Carter Road, where Khan had a flat. He recalled that Khan always dreamed of owning a grand sea-facing bungalow and eventually fulfilled that ambition by purchasing Mannat.

"I remember he bought Mannat right in front of me. I had even shot my film Tezaab in the same bungalow before he moved in," Kapoor said.
