MUMBAI : The pediatric nurse Lalita D'Silva, popularly referred to as "Taimur's Nanny," has been sharing intimate glimpses inside the homes and families of the well-known clients she has worked with in the past. Among them are Taimur Ali Khan and Jehangir Ali Khan, often known as Jeh, and Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor, as she raised their sons. During a podcast, Lalita talked about her stay in Pataudi Palace, Saif's ancestral home.
Sharing her experience of the Pataudi palace, Lalita said, “Pataudi Palace mein reh ke ghoomna, firna, enjoy karna… kya baat hai. Bahut hi bada palace hai aur itna open hai. Purane Nawabi style kamre, Nawabi style bed, abhi bhi hain, 200-300 saal puraane, pata nahi mujhe. Saif sir abhi bhi maintain kar rahe hain and he says, ‘I will maintain it forever.’ Wo wahan par born and brought up hain toh (attached) rahenge hi. And he loves to be there.”
Known by another name, Ibrahim Kothi, Pataudi Palace was constructed in 1935 by the Pataudi royal family, who ruled at the time. It is located in the Haryanan district of Gurugram. Saif, the owner at the moment, inherited it from his late father, the renowned cricket player Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi.
Saif's own 2021 Prime Video India Original thriller series Tandav and his brother-in-law Ranbir Kapoor's smash hit from the previous year, Sandeep Reddy Vanga's crime thriller Animal, were among the many recent movies and television series that were filmed at the palace. It's common to spot Saif and his family on vacations at Pataudi Palace.
