Internet is not a fan of Nikhil Kamath's rented Bengaluru apartment's interior: 'Eyesore in each room'
Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha, faced criticism after purchasing his first home, despite advocating for renting. His previous rented apartment in Bengaluru, a 7,000-square-foot space, was also criticized for its decor after a man posted pictures online.
Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha, recently purchased his first residence, which sparked criticism because the entrepreneur has always advocated for renting rather than buying. With Nikhil Kamath's property acquisition in the spotlight, old photos of his rented home have emerged on social media. This time, his rented apartment in Bengaluru, a vast 7,000-square-foot architectural masterpiece, was portrayed in a negative light as social media users criticized its decor.
Who posted Nikhil Kamath's apartment images on social media?
In all of this Nikhil Kamath house debate - what is being lost sight of is the absolute travesty that are its interiors.

Ser. You can afford far better interior designers/architects.

The reaction began when a PhonePe executive posted images of the flat on social media, misidentifying it as the residence Kamath had purchased. Rahul Gonsalves, head of design at PhonePe, described the interiors of Kamath House as an "absolute travesty," and hundreds of X users concurred.
"In all of this Nikhil Kamath house debate - what is being lost sight of is the absolute travesty that is its interiors. Ser. You can afford far better interior designers/architects," Gonsalves said on X, posting photos of Kamath's rented apartment in Bengaluru's Kingfisher Tower.
His images depict the luxurious interior of Nikhil Kamath's 7,000-square-foot property in Bengaluru. However, the maximalist interiors were not to everyone's liking.
How did people on the internet react?
Many X users questioned the 38-year-old billionaire's design tastes, with some harsher remarks implying that wealth does not always equate to good taste.
Some observers were perplexed about the design philosophy, pointing out that each space appeared to have been designed by a different person. Some defended the interiors, pointing out that Nikhil Kamath rented the apartment and was unlikely to be able to replace the decor. Here's what people said in the comments.

Better or worse than Ananya Pandey's house that Gauri Khan did?
But but... Hear me out... What if he wanted this style? ?

I am sure even Ananya Pandey could've done better, but Gauri Khan gives business
I love maximalism but I'd get a migraine living here
