Arjun Rampal launches his bar-cum-restaurant in Delhi

Bollywood-town’s hunk and the ‘Rock On’ star Arjun Rampal was the man of the moment on Friday as he launched his new plush lounge- ‘Lap’, in Hotel Samrat in New Delhi.

Dressed in a black suit and looking handsome as ever, Arjun was accompanied by his supermodel wife Meher Rampal.

‘Lap’ is Arjun’s joint venture with restaurateur A.D. Singh. Spread over an area of 17,000 square feet, the lounge would be a blessing for all the party goers as it offers good food, good music together with safety and privacy. The downside is that it is open exclusively for members.

The decor of the lounge is a blend of Victorian era as well as Indian royal heritage. Shahrukh Khan’s wife, Gauri Khan, and designer Tarun Tahiliani and Rohit Bal have contributed to the decor of Lap and Arjun, too, has designed some tables in the restaurant.

Some of the biggies of the Bollywood, including Shahrukh Khan with wife Gauri Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne, Abhay Deol, Imran Khan and Dino Morea, fashion designers Rohit Bal, JJ Valaya, Reena Dhaka and Tarun Tahiliani, models Indrani and Sonalika Sahay, DJ Akil, hotelier Vikram Chatwal had come to grace the occasion.

Showing his love and support for Arjun, Shahrukh Khan, who was with his wife Gauri said, "Gauri has designed it with Arjun and Meher. I think it would be fabulous.

"I wish them all the best. I am from Delhi and want everyone to visit this place."

"He's my brother, he's my friend. I wish him the best always," said Hrithik Roshan.

About his latest venture, Arjun said, "You have to become a member to know how incredible this place is. It`s for people to enjoy. India can proudly say, we have a place to party. It`s about privacy, a discovery of yourself."

The actor maintained that it would be one of those few places where like-minded people meet and also a perfect place to hang out after a hard day’s work.

He also said that all the guests would get to listen to some of the finest music and it would sure be a delight for the music lovers.

And about the menu, the star gushed, "I am a complete foodie who definitely wants to see Biriyani on the menu."

Arjun insisted that every woman would feel safe at this place. He said, “Today, if you look around at other clubs, people just come from anywhere and everywhere. They have opened their doors for everyone.

"The problem with that is that female partying gangs feel uncomfortable and not at all safe. But with this constraint, I want every women who comes here to feel safe.”

He quipped, “I love women and I want all of them to feel safe in my lap (restaurant).”

‘Lap’ that promises to be a posh and exclusive joint for all the party-lovers is all set to open its doors for the members this week.link
