Overview

• This week, major outlets premiered video walkthroughs of Siddiqui’s self-designed three-storey bungalow ‘Nawab’, offering an in-depth look at its architecture and interior features.
• Named after his late father, the Versova residence was built five years ago to recreate his Budhana childhood home with colonial-era flooring, arches and railings.
• The ground floor hosts a spacious hall and private cinema room, the second level contains a green-room-style makeup studio, and the top floor comprises additional living quarters.
• Walls are decorated solely with posters from Shakespearean plays like Hamlet and Othello, reflecting his National School of Drama background instead of film memorabilia.
• A Romeo and Juliet–inspired balcony overlooks lush flowers while a staircase ‘wall of fame’ displays his awards, though Siddiqui says he remains modest about accolades.
