Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has built his political profile on a promise to transform the city’s housing landscape — arguing for rent freezes, tax reform and redistribution from “richer and whiter neighborhoods” to low-income, outer-borough communities.
But the Democratic socialist could face scrutiny over the home history of his own family — specifically, his mother, award-winning filmmaker and Columbia University professor Mira Nair.
Nair, best known for directing “Monsoon Wedding” and “The Namesake,” quietly owned a luxury loft in Manhattan’s West Chelsea neighborhood for over a decade, The Post has learned.
She purchased the unit at 420 W. 25th St. for $1.375 million in 2008, records show.
The corner loft — with soaring 12-foot ceilings, a Schiffini-designed kitchen and a “luxurious en-suite bath with a spacious double glass shower,” according to the listing — sold in 2019 for $1.45 million.
Today, the unit is valued at approximately $1.9 million, according to Redfin.
During the period when Nair owned the apartment, her son was launching his political career — one that would come to include a campaign platform proposing the redistribution of property tax burdens to Manhattan’s wealthiest enclaves.

Crush that bassturd.
Strip him of his acquired citizenship.
Deport him to the socialist/communist paradise of his choice.
Sieze and liquidated all of his assets. Give the money to help homeless Veterans.

More than 50 years ago I knew a kid who recrutied for commies - and his complaint to me at the time was that it was easy to sign up students - but almost impossible to get ‘workers’... I laughed. Workers - real workers - are too smart to buy that commie crap.

Is the South Asian Muslim immigrant mayoral wannabe lying?
An earlier Mamdani Identified himself as Asian and African American on College App

As he runs for NYC mayor, Zohran Mamdani has made his identity as a Muslim immigrant of South Asian descent a key part of his appeal.
But as a high school senior in 2009, Mr. Mamdani, the Democratic mayoral nominee, claimed another label when he applied to Columbia University.
Asked to identify his race, he checked a box that he was “Asian” but also Black or African American,” according to internal data derived from a hack of Columbia U that was shared with The New York Times.

If he lied on his Columbia app, what are the chances he didn’t lie somewhere else on a government doc?
The hard part will be making it sustainable.
He picked out topics that lower-working class would ‘appreciate’. However, if you pick up each ‘promise’...it relies upon ‘capital’.
The grocery scheme? Go figure up one single front....the lease required. Then figure the management salary (probably people who are community organizers...NOT grocery operators. Then figure deals with the banks and the logistics chains.
It can only survive if the operations cost burden is upon the city to cough up....via increased taxation.
