Responding to the praise, Tanisha said, “We are very lucky and blessed. In fact, Deep Mukherjee has done a documentary on him. We have not released it yet. It is all part of film history.” Tanisha also revealed that much of the furniture in her current home was brought over from her previous family residence. “All this furniture is from my old house,” she said. “I used to live in the city, in an apartment.”When Farrah asked if this was her mother Tanja’s house, Tanisha confirmed: “Yes, my mother’s house.
This is all my mom’s furniture because my dad wasn’t a very homely person. Speaking about moving to the property, Tanisha said: “I moved here about 14 years ago. Now I’m settled here. Bombay has changed for me. Sea Link has also come up.”The vlog then moved to the kitchen area, which has the same old-world aesthetic as the rest of the house.

We’re both sitting here having tea and coffee.”Tanisha pointed fondly to a large single-seater chair sitting on the porch and said, “This is my father’s chair.” “All the Mukherjee brothers are very big, so they only fit in this chair,” she added, laughing at his size.Farrah also admired the plants spread across the balcony, and Tanisha proudly revealed that she had grown many of them herself. Curious about sister Kajol’s role in preparing the house, Farah jokingly asked, “What is Kajol’s contribution in all this?”Tanisha immediately joked, “I paid for that!” Farah responded with a laugh: “Well, well done.
“This is the only kind of contribution we want.”Adding to the joke, Tanisha said: “She signs the check books.”Then the conversation moved to the gatherings and celebrations hosted by the house.

Every Holi, we have a party here and there is usually a sunset celebration with close friends and family,” she said.The vlog concluded with Farrah gifting Tanisha several items from her brand collaborations.
