An all-new Nicobar opens in Bandra this June, and it takes up residence on the ground floor of the suburb’s famed Patkar Bungalow. Built in the late 1920s, this colonial style heritage villa stands conspicuously alone in itss modern surroundings at the junction between Turner and Linking Road.

While the outside of the bungalow retains its vintage character with sloping tin roof, grand archways and shuttered windows, the inside is where the real magic happens. In the words of Simran Lal, Co-founder and Creative Director, “My relationship with Bombay is the happiest one! The city makes me feel free and floaty and this is truly where my spirits belong.”
