Inside Kangana Ranaut's ‘century-old' MP bungalow in New Delhi, actor says it ‘wasn't easy to restore'. See pics

Almost a year after being elected as an MP from the Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh, Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut has finally moved into the official residence allotted to her by the government in Delhi. This comes seven months after she sold her bungalow in Bandra, Mumbai. On Wednesday, Kangana offered glimpses of her official residence and the housewarming ceremony on social media.
Taking to her Instagram stories, Kangana shared photos and videos from the ceremony while noting, 'Finally got some time to shift to the Delhi MP house. It was not easy to restore a century-old MP house. Thanks dear @design_by_darshini for doing this.' In one of the photos, she can be seen posing with Darshini, the interior architect and designer who gave the space a facelift.
Another picture features the actor-MP with her sister-in-law Ritu Ranaut, relishing some sweets together. Ritu is the wife of her brother Aksht Ranaut. As the moment marked a major milestone in her life, Kangana chose to go with something very rooted and was seen sporting a red and white Kanjeevaram saree, smiling from ear to ear. Incidentally, she moved into the bungalow on the occasion of Akshaya Tritiya.
In September 2024, Zapkey India reported that Kangana had sold off her Bandra bungalow for a whopping Rs 32 crore. Located at Bandra West's posh Pali Hill area, the Bollywood actor purchased the property in September 2017 for Rs 20.7 crore. She also took a loan of Rs 27 crore against the property, which served as the office for her production company, Manikarnika Films, as well, in December 2022.

Kangana Ranaut's movie career, however, has been going through a rough patch since 2019, with all her movies that released after Judgementall Hai Kya bombing. Her most recent release, the historical biographical drama Emergency, which marked her debut as a solo director as well, had also failed at the box office miserably, grossing just Rs 23.75 crore against a reported budget of about Rs 60 crore. She will be next seen in Thalaivii director Vijay's upcoming project, wherein she shares the screen with her Tanu Weds Manu co-star R Madhavan.

Red alert is issued by Mandi DC today as well. Awaiting authorities' approval on the same, will be there soonest possible. Thanks," the post read. Earlier on Friday, several houses were damaged and vehicles were washed away due to the cloudbursts and heavy rainfall in the state over the last 24 hours. A local whose house has been damaged following a cloudburst said, "Everything got washed away after a cloudburst. We are staying at our relatives' house." At least 37 people have died and Rs 400 crore worth of property was damaged as torrential rains disrupted life across Himachal Pradesh, according to the state Disaster Management Authority. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a rain alert for the state until July 7. According to the Himachal Pradesh State Disaster Management Authority and the Revenue Department, the state has suffered damages amounting to more than Rs 400 crore due to incessant monsoon rains. Search, rescue, and relief operations are underway, particularly in the worst-hit Mandi district, where several roads remain blocked and essential services are disrupted. "We have recorded over Rs 400 crore in losses so far, as entered in our system. But the actual damage is likely to be much higher," said DC Rana, Special Secretary of the State Disaster Management Authority and the Revenue Department, while speaking to the media on Wednesday. "Our primary focus at the moment is on search, rescue, and restoration. Detailed damage assessment will take time," he added. The worst-affected area remains Thunag subdivision of Mandi, where major restoration efforts are in progress.

Did Salman Khan leak his first look from Galwan on purpose or accidentally? Fans can't keep calm over new photo

Ever since it was announced that Salman Khan will next be working on a film based on the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict, fans have been overjoyed. For the past couple of weeks, the actor has been sharing his pictures, leaving them gushing over his slightly changed look on social media. Recently, he shared a picture of himself yet again, but it was not the Sikandar star who grabbed eyeballs; instead, what looked like a poster of his upcoming film stole the show. Now, fans wonder if this was a soft launch of the poster? Salman Khan's new post Taking to his Instagram handle, Salman Khan shared a picture of himself. He looks smart wearing a blue-colored fitted tee as he sits in a room. The actor looks polished with a near-shaved haircut, and he poses with one of his hands on his mouth to partially cover his face. Although it is hard for any fan to take their eyes off him in this picture, what was kept behind him stole the limelight. The actor captioned the post as, 'Mehnat karo sahi disha mein. Unhi par woh meherbaan, aur banayega unhi ko unke hunar ka pehelwan. In English…you translate.' Eagle-eyed fans spotted the poster of what looked like his upcoming Galwan film on a table behind him. The Sikandar star looks intense, with a thin moustache and blo*d on his face. Well, we aren't sure if this was accidental or intentional, but whatever the case, we are sure fans have gotten a great surprise. Some fans even believe that the actor is preparing for a major launch. About the Galwan film As we previously reported, 'The film is based on the best-selling novel, India's Most Fearless, and features Salman Khan as an army officer. Taking a break from his usual diet, Salman is following a tight regimen and is hitting the gym to acquire a lean physique,' revealed a source close to the development. Pinkvilla exclusively reported that Salman Khan will conduct a look test in early July, and the makers plan to start filming by the end of July. The first schedule kicks off in Ladakh for about 25 days, followed by a marathon stint at a studio in Mumbai. Many action sequences will be shot at real locations in Ladakh, followed by extension shots at a studio in Mumbai. Salman has allotted bulk dates to the film, and the team intends to call it a wrap by November 2025. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
