Yes, ideally the fan should be centered in geometric center of room, but when push comes to shove it absolutely needs not be of couse, but i think a ceiling fan that is not centered and a chandelier that is centered will not look good

Pendants seem like a better geometric fit.

The bold and the beautiful. Balance between the dark and bold hues in contrast with beautiful and luxe textures was the key to achieve this eclectic bedroom.

Suraj, If you have access to the room that you shared earlier you can try seeing the flicker effect at night time with both lights and fan being on. If the lamp has a 360 degree light spread it will cast the fans shadow on the ceiling and when the fan is turned on it causes a flikr effect. I personally find it a distraction and at the same time many would not even notice it. Take the pick based on your usage. Wall mounted fans and recessed fans can also be explored.
