Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor and husband Anand Ahuja recently made headlines with their latest purchase of the iconic Rhythm House in Mumbai! This legendary music store has an insanely significant history. The store, once a hub for vinyls and CDs, was shut down in 2018 after its previous owner, Nirav Modi, defaulted on loans. And now, for ₹478.4 million ($5.7 million), the Bollywood power couple has taken ownership through their company, Bhaane Group.
For those unfamiliar with the history of the place, Rhythm House was *the* spot for music lovers since the 1940s. With legendary visitors like Pandit Ravi Shankar and even Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson, Rhythm House has been a significant place in the music industry. Over time, though, music piracy and digital streaming pushed the beloved store out of business, leaving it shuttered—until now.
What’s next for this 3,600-square-foot space? While Bhaane isn’t spilling the beans just yet, they’ve confirmed the deal and hinted at expanding their retail presence in Mumbai. Exciting, right? Considering the couple's growing business ventures, it’ll be interesting to see how they breathe new life into this historic spot.
With nostalgia hitting hard for Mumbai’s music lovers, many are eager to see what this new chapter holds for Rhythm House. Whatever happens, it's a definite nod to the store’s rich history and a sign that Sonam and Anand are all about keeping iconic legacies alive.
