Mithila Palkar Instagram – Best friends for more than a decade, actor Mithila Palkar (@mipalkarofficial) assigned Rutuja Tulsulkar, principal designer at Studio Bloom (@studiobloom.in) , the task of designing her 700-square-foot Dadar home long before she was even looking for a place. “Since Rutuja started studying design, I knew that my first house will be designed by her,” says Mithila. They built castles in the air about what their homes would look like one day, and it all panned out years later when Mithila set her sights on this cosy space. “It was such a huge gamble – we were working together as professionals and it can go south. But if anything, it has only brought us closer together,” adds Mithila. For Rutuja, knowing her ‘client’ inside out only helped curate the space perfectly. “It was a very fluid process. We are not just best friends but we share an aesthetic sense. Anyone who knows her, knows that she is a warm, kind person. And I wanted to capture her personality, no filter,” notes Rutuja.
