Why did I think that all of KB was shot in Delhi? From what I read, Sethi-Nivas (all of the interior) was some rich mucky-mucks pad in the Delhi vicinity. There was a concerted effort by the KB team to strip the original off of all the german glass (what's that?) and italian furniture (or some such) and replace with furnishings more in keeping with our proud rufoojee (refugee) Mr. RS's means of livelihood . . . the pink exterior is very clearly Delhi . . . as is the park (?) and the Univ. grounds . . . what's left? I hope they stick to that . . . it's too much for my constitution to be taken to Mumbai at this stage . . .

That's what I thought I'd read (nothing in the accompanying photo suggested loneliness . . . just cute as hell !! )

Probably will! When you get holda someone at the India end, that's the first thing you should suggest . . . I bet you - almost my bottom dollar - that the female contingent on this forum will chip in to fly him out here (and get him a whole new wardrobe to wow everyone when he returns to the KB sets) . . . then we can all zero in into houston . . . you're used to feeding 120+ people, so . . . hey . . .😆

That's probably not verbatim . . . but you got the point . . . actually when I think 'italian furniture' chrome etc comes to mind . . . there aren't distinct periods like English or French . . . I'm now scraping the bottom of the barrel . . . haven't paged thru 'Architectural Digest' in eons . . . I cannot quite figure out what the style of this Sethi-Nivas is . . . there are quasi french windows, the doors are painted white . . . and then? The kitchen doesn't come across as fancy-shmancy . . . the pink balcony . . . does that belong to pink house of which we see only the exterior or did they paint the one in the 'actual house' pink . . . for authenticity?

italian furniture to me is all very modern, mirrors and chrome. the kind of chair where u have to hope like crazy that ur actually sitting on a chair and not sum1s idea of sculpture
. the desi version of it usually involves fountains and plaster of paris statues 😆
did u c the SNL skit abt italian fountains?? :D
the sethi nivas to me looks like a typical ghar........... where the table in a corner has been there for a couple of generations and even the thot didnt occur to ne1 that perhaps it may look better by the window. for all we know the balcony is a part of a totally different house, chosen for its correct lighting
