Every wall of the house adorns such a beautiful piece of art that makes her an art lover. Shalini Passi is an art lover and her collection testifies that, which boasts works of some of India's finest artists such as MF Husain, SH Raza and more. The house itself would look like a single large painting, and every room shows different masterpieces that complement the overall architecture.
According to the News18 reports, during a chat with Larry’s List, Shalini described the eye-catching 25-foot towering Buddha head by renowned artist Subodh Gupta placed on her lush green lawn. She said the Buddha sculpture is one of her top 3 most treasured artworks. Germination by SH Raza and “Four Bindi panels" by Bharti Kher are her other two precious artworks.

During a conversation with the Architectural Digest, Shalini expressed, “I am an artist and have always had an eye for art, for meaningful objects… I was and always will be obsessive; if I see something beautiful or interesting, I make a note of it, and I research it endlessly. I go to scour antique shops and museums, look at fabric, feel the textures of stone, and seek the provenance, and beauty of an object. One should have an eye for refinement."
Shalini's house is warm, elegant, and just so sophisticated in every corner. From interiors and accessorisations to breathtaking outdoor space, this 20,000-square-foot house is no less than a dream come true.
