Rock on!

“I realised there was a community of rock lovers who didn’t really have a place to tune in for their kind of music coupled with food, drinks and of course friends,” feels Grover, who not many will know once played for a rock band in good ol’ college days! “Let’s say I have had a soft spot for hard rock,” Atul smiles to say. Speaking of performances, there’s a huge screen hogging space, one we are told will play out recorded widescreen versions of live rock concerts and also live Internet feeds on request. “Most of us haven’t had a chance to catch rock events, all of which are staged around the world. At Rock in Rio, we will conduct special nights featuring rock legends and their tours and concerts,” Grover lists out his plans. And for feelers, he recently rolled out a Guns ‘n’ Roses night that ran to a packed house. Coupling the good music is fine fare culled from the hotel’s Italian restaurant La Dolce Vita. “We are also working out a quick-bite menu that will bring in Indian skewers, kebabs and the like,” mentions Atul, as we eye the coasters styled out of Rolling Stone magazine covers. Next up we hear is yet another rocking night around Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Clearly, the party’s just begun!
