Dhurandhar’s Lyari Mansion Identified as Amritsar’s Lal Kothi, Caretaker Confirms Two-Day Shoot

A social media tip prompted local confirmation of Amritsar’s 19th-century Lal Kothi as the film’s Karachi stand-in.

Overview

  • Recent reports link Rehman Dakait’s on-screen residence to Lal Kothi in Amritsar, rather than a location in Pakistan.
  • Caretaker Deepak Yadav says the production filmed there for two days and that the site charges Rs 50,000 per day for shoots.
  • The property is managed by a trust associated with an ashram, not by a private individual, according to the caretaker.
  • Historian Peter Bance cites an 1876 origin and European-influenced architecture, detailing marble, carved wood, and high-ceiling interiors.
  • Instagram footage shared on January 6 helped pinpoint the site, as the film sustains a strong box-office run with a sequel slated for March 2026.
