The Talkies is a concept bar that celebrates the golden era of Indian cinema, dating back to the 1940s all the way to the 1960s. This bar is all about the Glitz, Glamour and Art all packed into one vibrant and lively space. Stepping inside feels like entering a cinematic reverie, where illuminated marquee lights and film inspired lingo recreate the nostalgic ambience of a classic movie theatre. The monochromatic palette sets the stage for vivid, portraits of legendary artists, each wall narrating tales of creativity and cultural resonance.
Paying homage not only to Bollywood but also to the many film industries across India from Tollywood and Kollywood to Mollywood — the space seamlessly blends old-world charm with contemporary design details. Every corner captures the emotional pulse of cinema — dramatic, expressive, timeless, and nostalgic, inviting guests to experience a deep cultural connection.
The bar lounge carries this design philosophy in its very name — The Talkies. The illuminated signage at the entrance, featuring film-inspired lingo like “Now Showing,” “Lights, Camera, Cocktails,” instantly takes guests into the nostalgic world of a classic movie theatre
