While Anupam has a long list of successful films to his name, the actor currently resides in a rented property in Mumbai. He made the decision a few years ago that he does not want to own any house. However, the actor does own a 9-bedroom house in Shimla that he gave to his mother, Dulari Kher.

Anupam previously discussed his decision to live in a rented flat in a press conference with ETimes. He had previously stated that the only estate he had ever procured was for his mother, who had aspired to own a home in Shimla. He says, “I don't even own an apartment in Mumbai. I live in a rented apartment. I decided 4-5 years back that I don't want to own property. The only property I bought four years ago was a house for my mother in Shimla.”

He further added, “After my father passed away, she started living with us. I used to always tease her, 'Mama, aak ko Anupam Kher hai, abh aur kya chahihye?' She surprised me by telling me 'mujhe ghar chahiye'. I told her that Raju and I have houses, so she said, 'Nahi, Shimla me... All my life I used to live in a rented home in Shimla and my desire and dream was that one day I would own a house.”
