Inside Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth’s Maximalist Chennai Home
Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth live together in a large apartment in Chennai.
It is high up on the 18th floor.
The home has big windows and balconies with views of the city and sea.
Instead of using simple decorations, they filled the rooms with colours, patterns and interesting objects.
Their living room has French windows, special furniture and a glass chandelier.
Their bedroom has a four-poster bed and floral walls.
Their office-den contains records, awards and gifts that are meaningful to them.
The couple wanted the apartment to feel like their own home, not like a showroom.
They also have several rooms where Siddharth can host friends and gatherings.
Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth have opened up about their first home together in Chennai.
The 4,000-square-foot apartment is located on the 18th floor and features balconies and expansive windows.
