All about Abhay Deol ’s happy home in North Goa
Talking about none other than Abhay Deol, over the years, the man has been known for his skill set on the big screen. However, did you know that the star is all about keeping things simple and eco-friendly as well? Deol’s home features a lot of amenities and also has a lot of space, but did you know that the star’s heart has always been set on more extravagant pieces?His haven in Assagao, North Goa, did not happen overnight and took quite a bit of time to conceptualize and complete. However, Deol was able to get his vision just right with the help of his architects. While talking to The Hollywood Reporter India, the ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara’ actor shared, “I described it to my architects [Vishakha Dholakia Chowdhry and Muninder Singh Chowdhry] saying, ‘When I’m looking at the person in front of me, I don’t want to see the ceiling—or want any windows.‘” With no bugs and the AC on.”Deol’s ‘Glass House’ is a unique piece of art on its own. The actor had wished for his house to feel as if he were standing outside while staying inside his home, and his architects and designers were able to bring the vision to life. He opened up about how his living room is the space where everyone hangs out and one of the favorite parts of the house. He added, “Your lifestyle definitely comes into play in the way you deal with situations, people, and your work. I’m not someone who takes his work home. I was that person early on in my career, and it would define my mood. But I realized it was unhealthy, unnecessary, and egotistical.”
