POP-UP Experiences & Takeovers
Where concepts come alive — through cocktails, cuisine and sound.
The Spirited Woman | By Rajni Gill
Rajni Gill — The Spirited Woman — curates bar experiences inspired by her travels across India’s Northeast, hills, heartlands and coastlines.
Her signature pop-ups combine regional spirits, indigenous ingredients and folklore into contemporary cocktails that tell stories of origin, memory and mood.
Each takeover is a sensory journey — where Khasi mandarin meets Lakadong turmeric, where the spice of Nagaland or the floral notes of Arunachal flow into the glass. From the Parvati River in Kasol to the shores of Anjuna Beach and the backwaters of Kerala, Rajni’s creations capture the essence of India’s landscape in every sip.
These events have become a platform for regional expression and sustainable mixology, representing a bold, soulful new wave of Indian bar culture.

Concepts Include:
- Flower Power: ’70s hippy culture meets classic rock.
- Rock, Stock & Barrel: Rock music meets bold flavours and handcrafted cocktails.
- Sufism: Sufi music with aromatic cuisine and meditative drinks.
