There's a major 'shift' happening in Bollywood, especially among young stars. Over the past two years, several actors have changed their addresses. Very soon, a few more names will get added to the list.
For example, Alia Bhatt has recently moved out of her parents' home and shifted into a swanky apartment, along with elder sister Shaheen. As soon as he finds some time off from his busy schedule, Varun Dhawan will move into a flat in the same building as his parents in Juhu. Sushant Singh Rajput's new bachelor pad, we hear, is quirky, quiet and tastefully done up. Ranbir is also in the process of doing up his new home. Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra, we hear, is busy scouting homes in America, since hers might be a long stay off shores.

Their reasons may vary but most of Bollywood's young brigade is flaunting new addresses. BT gives you an update...

RANBIR KAPOOR
The Kapoor boy moved out of his parents' Pali Hill bungalow, Krishnaraj, into a sea-facing duplex at Silver Sands Building on Carter Road (Bandra), along with his then girlfriend Katrina Kaif. However, after their break-up, he abandoned their love-nest to find solace in an apartment owned by his parents in a building called Wits End on Hill Road (Bandra). When Rishi and Neetu Kapoor moved in after Krishnaraj was razed, Ranbir shifted to his grandmother Krishna Raj Kapoor's house at Deonar. Soon, he'll move into his bachelor pad in a building called Vastu, which is a few minutes away from where Krishnaraj stood. Even that is likely to be a temporary arrangement. It's widely believed that when Krishnaraj is ready for occupancy, he'll go back home to mom and dad.


PARINEETI CHOPRA
Parineeti started searching for her dream home in 2014. After checking out over a dozen properties across the length and breadth of the city, she finally opted for a spacious sea-facing flat at Quantum Park, off Carter Road, in 2015. Before moving into the flat, located in the same building as Preity Zinta's, she had occupied homes on rent in Andheri. But when shooting in Andheri and nearby areas, she shifts to a rented place in the locality.


HRITHIK ROSHAN
Soon after his divorce from Sussanne Khan, Hrithik moved out of his parents' home at El Palazzo in Juhu. He is currently staying at Prime Beach Apartments, a few minutes away from where Rakesh and Pinky Roshan live. The beach-facing house, which was under renovation for more than a year, was done up in parts by John Abraham's architect brother and an American firm.


SHAHID KAPOOR
The actor had been house-hunting for more than a year before he finalised a flat at Praneta building in Juhu. It's spacious with a living room and sun-deck on the ground floor, and bedrooms and other private spaces underneath. Shahid, who was staying just a floor away from his father Pankaj Kapur in Versova's Raj Classique, moved into his swanky new pad in early 2015, a few months before he got married to Mira Rajput. While the current residence is no doubt Sasha's dream home, it is more than a mile away from where his dad resides.


ALIA BHATT
Alia has moved into her own flat recently. Located above a quaint coffee shop, it's just a few minutes away from her parents' (Soni Razdan and Mahesh Bhatt) Silver Beach Apartments home in Juhu. The house has been decorated by director Vikas Bahl's former wife Richa Dubey, with plenty of inputs from Soni. It was picked looking at the space and privacy issues faced by Alia at her parents' home.


PRIYANKA CHOPRA
PeeCee began to hunt for an independent home two years ago. The decision to move out of her parents' home in Raj Classique (Versova) came soon after her dad's demise. It took her a year to zero in on a home befitting her star status at Karmayog Apartments, Juhu. The building is tucked inside a quaint lane and offers a beautiful view of the city's landscape. However, the new house hasn't changed anything for the actress. Priyanka loves being around family. We hear, mommy, Dr Madhu Chopra often stays with her in the new pad. There are also reports of her looking for a home in the US, where she is currently shooting for a thriller series. Way to go!


SONAM KAPOOR
If everything goes as planned, Sonam could soon move into her plush duplex at Bandra Kurla Complex. The actress picked the unlikely location for privacy reasons. Signature Island, abode to the rich and famous, is located close to the American consulate, which keeps it away from prying eyes. The hitch: daddy Anil Kapoor is not too keen on his daughter leaving. Also, being a family girl, she might not want to leave the warmth of her parents' Juhu bungalow.


ANUSHKA SHARMA
Although she has a great-looking pad in Andheri, we hear, even Anushka is toying with the idea of changing homes. Apparently, she plans to move into a plush building, midtown. We don't know yet if cricketer Virat Kohli, will share the Worli pad with her.


SUSHANT SINGH RAJPUT
Break-ups can prove costly. Sushant Singh Rajput is a case in point. The actor, who shared an apartment with girlfriend Ankita Lokhande in Malad, moved out of it bag and baggage after their break-up. He now stays at Little Heights building, Bandra. Before zeroing in on the flat, he reportedly spent many days in a plush hotel suite.

KATRINA KAIF
The actress, who was residing at Guldev Sagar Apartments (Bandra), moved into Silver Sands with Ranbir. While Ranbir left after the relationship ended, Kat stayed on. A few months ago, there were rumours that she was looking for a new home, but nothing seems to have happened on that front.
