Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s backyard is a great breakout space and also doubles as her yoga studio. This all-white enclosed space features grey flooring, high ceilings and pillars. In another corner, you’ll find a patch of grass with comfortable lounge chairs and a collection of potted plants. Her in-house swimming pool is not only perfect for capturing her daily #OOTD pictures but also makes a great spot for soaking up some Vitamin D.

Gokull Rao Kadam
Delicate pieces of pottery, traditional artefacts and wooden sculptures tastefully dot this lovely 7,000 square feet erstwhile colonial-style bungalow turned home-studio in Chennai, elegantly renovated to suit the taste of its famous owners—film actor Nayanthara and her husband Vignesh Shivan who’s also a director, producer, writer and lyricist.
Huge pockets of sunshine and a gentle breeze highlight the space as you walk through in the late afternoon. And it transforms, somewhat gently, as the sun quietly wanes, evening sets in and the warm mood lights come on. Designed as a home-studio for the power couple, the aesthetic is modern luxe with nuances of a colonial past. It is also distinctly outdoorsy and tropical, with a rustic charm and a focus on local traditional craftsmanship. An earthy colour palette with touches of teak, woven fiber, linen fabric, and rattan keep the space subtle and grounded.
