Amritsr – The Maharaja of Indian Cuisine Brings Authentic Punjabi Flavours to Mumbai

Amritsr – The Maharaja of Indian Cuisine Brings Authentic Punjabi Flavours to Mumbai

The flavours of Punjab’s cultural capital have finally arrived in Mumbai. After earning a loyal following in Bangkok, Phuket, Pattaya and Dubai, Amritsr – The Maharaja of Indian Cuisine has opened its first restaurant in Andheri, bringing with it the comforting, homestyle taste of Amritsar that food lovers often miss outside the city.

What sets Amritsr apart is its focus on true Amritsari cuisine. For more than 15 years, the brand has stayed committed to authenticity, using its own masalas, desi ghee, mustard, saag and even soya chunks sourced directly from Amritsar. Every dish is crafted with the flavours, methods and warmth that define Punjabi cooking.

Along with its dine-in restaurant, Amritsr also ensures its food reaches every corner of Mumbai through two delivery kitchens in Bandra and Andheri, promising hot, fresh meals wherever you are.

The brand began its journey in 2018 with its first outlet in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit Soi 22. It was born out of a simple realisation: the authentic taste of Amritsar rarely travels well. Even the iconic Amritsari Kulcha, the pride of the city, often loses its magic once you leave Punjab.

Amritsr’s growth is led by hospitality entrepreneur Vicky M. Sethi, Managing Director of King Group Hospitality (KGH). Known for previously building Kulcha King in Dubai, Sethi has made it his mission to preserve authenticity while taking Amritsari cuisine global.

The Mumbai outlet spans 3,500 sq. ft. and seats up to 150 guests, offering the warmth of Punjab through cultural décor, earthy tones and traditional artefacts. Behind the scenes, chefs trained in-house under Sethi’s original recipes maintain flavour consistency across cities.

The menu celebrates Punjabi classics from slow-cooked Dal Makhni and rich Butter Chicken to winter favourite Sarson da Saag, fragrant Biryani and soft Garlic Naan. The beverage menu complements the meal with refreshing favourites such as Gajar ki Kanji, Pudina Sharbat, Sikanjvi, Mango Lassi and the iconic Punjabi Lassi.

Amritsr also introduces an inventive cocktail programme rooted in Indian-inspired mixology. Highlights include the gin-based Courtesy of Planter, the tangy Pickle Mango Mezcarita, the milk-washed Kulangani Elixir, the purple cabbage–infused White on the Top, and the vibrant Amritasari Jamun made with jamun-infused rum.

For Sethi, opening in Mumbai is deeply personal, Being born and raised in Mumbai, I wanted to bring home what we’ve created globally. This city deserves to taste Amritsar in its truest form. My favourite part of this journey has always been seeing people discover and fall in love with Amritsari food for the first time. For me, it's not just cuisine, it's a legacy,” he shared.

Mumbai marks the beginning of Amritsr’s Indian chapter, with more expansions planned across the country and an upcoming outlet in Bali.

Six Fields Launches #CheersForMore Campaign with Anil Chaudhary

Six Fields Launches #CheersForMore Campaign with Anil Chaudhary

Six Fields has launched its Summer 2026 campaign, #CheersForMore, bringing internationally recognised cricket umpire Anil Chaudhary on board to create a fresh and engaging cricket-viewing experience. Launched during the ongoing cricket season, the campaign aims to encourage fans to celebrate not only match-winning moments but also the smaller moments that shape the game.

At the centre of the campaign is a digital film featuring Anil Chaudhary in a role not commonly seen in cricket brand campaigns. Instead of focusing only on players and high-impact moments, the campaign highlights the many events that keep fans emotionally invested throughout a match, from wides and dot balls to appeals, boundaries, near misses, and changing momentum.

The idea behind the campaign comes from an interesting insight into fan behaviour. While cricket viewers remain emotionally connected from the first ball to the last, celebrations usually happen only during major moments like sixes, wickets, or final victories. Through #CheersForMore, Six Fields aims to make every moment worth celebrating.

Using familiar umpire signals as a creative element, the campaign transforms official gestures into easy fan reactions that people can use while watching matches together. Through this approach, Six Fields hopes to build a more interactive and socially driven viewing culture among modern cricket audiences.

Speaking about the campaign, Prem Dewan, Chairman and Managing Director of DeVANS Modern Breweries Ltd., said: “Cricket is one of India’s biggest entertainment experience and our campaign #CheersForMore celebrates the energy that exists in every moment of the game. The campaign reflects this energy and encourages fans to engage more actively throughout the game.”

The campaign’s choice of Anil Chaudhary also stands out. While many cricket campaigns usually feature current or former players, Six Fields has selected a personality closely associated with the game’s structure and authenticity. Having retired from IPL umpiring only last year, Chaudhary continues to be recognised as the most experienced umpire in IPL history, bringing familiarity and credibility to the campaign.

The initiative also reflects how cricket consumption habits are evolving, especially among younger audiences. Fans today interact with matches through memes, reels, fantasy leagues, watch parties, social media discussions, and live conversations beyond television screens. Brands are increasingly trying to become part of these moments rather than simply seeking visibility.

The campaign will roll out extensively across digital and social platforms during the cricket season. It will include creator collaborations, fan participation formats, influencer content, and real-time conversations to make the cheering behaviour more engaging and visible online.

Speaking on the campaign, Anil Chaudhary said: “Every signal on the field exists because every moment matters in cricket. Through #CheersForMore with Six Fields, we wanted to bring that same spirit to fans and encourage them to stay engaged with the game beyond just the major moments.”

With #CheersForMore, Six Fields is looking to strengthen its connection with cricket culture, social engagement, and celebration moments during one of India's biggest sporting seasons. Cheers For More with Six Fields!
