‘Bollyboom House’ launches in Mumbai

Mumbai, 4 April 2022 - “Bollyboom”, a Percept Live Intellectual Property, in partnership with Cinnamon Tree Hospitality have expanded their hospitality footprint into Mumbai with the launch of the ‘Bollyboom House’ lounge in the Adani Inspire precinct at the vibrant Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) area. The glamorous new ‘Bollyboom House’ at BKC is a franchise venture between Percept Live and Cinnamon Tree Hospitality, and will offer an exotic culinary experience and electrifying live entertainment within a surreal glamorous ambience, thereby taking the Bollyboom experience to the next level.  

‘Bollyboom’ is the world’s first and biggest Bollywood Dance Music (BDM) Property offering an eclectic blend of Music, Dance and Live Entertainment. Incepted in 2013, Bollyboom has over the past 8 years expanded into multiple formats spanning Arenas, Occasions, Club Nights, Campus Shows and Bollyboom@Home live streams. Bollyboom further expanded its footprint in 2021 with the launch of ‘Bollyboom House’ – a series of themed Lounges that will offer fans a holistic immersive premium Bollywood experience inclusive of F&B and a wide range of live entertainment events. The very first ‘Bollyboom House’ lounge launched in Goa in December 2021 to a great turnout and rave reviews. 

Assiduously designed by DesignWorx led by Shaji Arakkel and his team, the entire Bollyboom House at BKC project has been supervised and executed by Transform Projects. The enigmatic lounge has been conceived to give maximum city a premium sophisticated Bar & Dining experience in the early evening hours, to seamlessly transform into a high energy, vivacious boutique night club at the turn of the hour. 

The theme is non-conformist and the vibe very chic as the black and white chrome tones play effortlessly with the lighting to create a dramatic effect that can change the look and feel of the entire lounge by the hour. The marble and granite floor tiles, table-tops and bar counter, and white leather seats are balanced with suede-upholstered dinner chairs in soft grey and burnished veneer flooring. The smart colour scheme offers a visually relaxing ambience, while the use of different angles, arches and lights make for an eclectic visual expedition. Installations spanning chrome, acrylic and glass add intricacy and charm to the lounge.

The F&B is extensive, experimental and exotic spanning a wide range of interesting ingredients and cuisines to suit discerning patrons’ taste buds. The global fusion cuisine conjointly curated by Cinnamon Tree Hospitality’s Consultant Chef Jehangir Jamula and in-house Chef Zakir Mustak Shaikh puts emphasis on small portioned pre-plated dishes with a touch of Indian Culture and offers a selection of some of the best flavours from across the globe including chote ka shorba, thai papaya salad, jodhpuri stuffed mirchi, mezze platter, shish tauk, double lamb chops and edamame kofta amongst others. In addition to the food menu, the in-house desserts like the chocomosa and the bolly sundae are not to be missed. The Bar area is huge and strikingly visible from every angle of the lounge, and houses a massive collection of spirits and liqueurs. A fantastic selection of exotic cocktails curated by in-house Mixologist Shailesh Parkar promise to add sparkle to the Bollyboom House experience.

The early dining hours will have a relaxed lounge ambience, while transforming into an electrifying venue featuring top Bollywood Music artists & DJs for lively entertainment sessions curated by Bollyboom. Cutting edge Bollywood music artists, trending DJs and specially curated Live Bands will grace the venue. The carefully designed programming would include exclusive content spanning unplugged artists, cover bands and evenings dedicated to legends of Bollywood. Great music fused with state-of-the-art lighting and acoustics, incredible SFX, and live entertainment will form the unique identity of the ‘Bollyboom House’ experience at BKC. 

Bollyboom House @ BKC opened its doors on 1 April 2022 for an exclusive preview to a restricted guest list.
