It’s no secret that big-screen stars are typically the most sought-after. One such popular Tollywood star, Shiva Kandukuri, continues to amass wealth and unwind in his opulent home.
We were curious to find out how Shiva, a well-known producer’s son, was creating his safe haven. Then he reveals all: “My first childhood home was in Maredpally, specifically Mahendra Hills. I am talking about the year 1995. In those days, there was only our bungalow. I remember taking long walks in those lanes that went up the hilly area with my mother! Not just walking together, but also listening to her tell stories to me.”
He believes that even if he were to become a household name, he would still like a warm and welcoming atmosphere at his house. He goes on to say in detail, “Even though I have studied and lived overseas, I still adhere to minimalism. Readers might be startled to learn that I don’t have any art frames or images of myself hanging on the walls in my current residence. There are four simple walls!”
He continued, revealing additional intriguing insights, saying, “I enjoy comfortable settings. All I look for in my home is comfort. Not because I want to create a picture-perfect house, but because I do want good lighting and design. I want to be proud of my environment, and a pleasant house is more than just pretty furniture. Since I spend most of my time at home, comfort has an impact on my general health as well.”
He wants something open-airy and roomy at the same time, without being dramatic. In addition, he recalls a similar atmosphere he had experienced in the home of superstar Nani. “So, essentially, Mr. Nani has a room solely devoted to his films, and he has placed them so strategically that the spotlight will only fall on the titles of his blockbuster movies when you switch on the spotlights. In the future, I hope to have a place like this for my filmography as well,” he concluded.
