Sustainable Fashion Icon and Serial Entrepreneur Meghana Ghodawat Forays into Hospitality

Opening in Mumbai, where the culinary and experiential market thrives on constant evolution, Mirage promises to fulfil the city’s appetite for something refreshingly new. A resto-bar celebrated for its exceptional food, Mirage Mumbai offers two distinct cuisines curated by world-class chefs. The Japanese menu has been designed by a chef from the Philippines, who has extensive experience in elevating pan-Asian cuisines, while the Mediterranean menu is the creation of a Jordanian chef who has trained the team to perfection. These distinct flavours are complemented by a unique bar concept featuring both indoor and outdoor spaces, ensuring a welcoming atmosphere that never feels claustrophobic. 

Adding to its appeal, Mirage Mumbai boasts an outdoor terrace area—a rarity among city’s popular resto-bars and nightclubs. This signature feature provides a spacious environment to relax, dine and unwind, making it the perfect venue for social gatherings or weekend DJ nights. With its unparalleled combination of design, culinary excellence and ambiance, Mirage expects to set a new standard among food destinations in Mumbai.

Speaking about her investment, Meghana Ghodawat said, “I have always loved the concept and vibe that Mirage offers. Having visited its Bengaluru outlet frequently, I am excited to turn it into the perfect place to begin a memorable evening with friends—great food, incredible ambiance, and a seamless transition into an exciting night out in Mumbai. Bringing this experience to Mumbai feels like the right step, and I look forward to seeing Mirage become a hotspot for those seeking quality and innovation in F&B in their social outings.”

“We are very excited about Meghna Ghodawat coming on board to support us with bringing Mirage to Mumbai. Mirage has been making waves ever since its inception in Bengaluru and we can’t wait to see how Mumbai responds to our brand of hospitality. Mrs Ghodawat’s engagement with the brand lets us know we’ve found the right audience and we look forward to the possibilities that this collaboration will unfold,” shared Subin Sashi, partner at VRO Hospitality. 

The Bengaluru-based VRO Hospitality operates 34+ outlets across India, including flagship brands such as Hangover, Badmaash, Nevermind and Tycoons. Renowned for its ability to redefine the F&B experience, VRO is led by partners Dawn Thomas, Subin Sashi, Sundeep Nayak, Safdhar Adoor, and Sharath Rice, who have successfully turned pandemic challenges into opportunities, acquiring brands like Fava and Café Noir while venturing into cloud kitchens.

With Mirage, VRO Hospitality is set to bring a fresh perspective to Mumbai’s F&B landscape, making it a hub for culinary excellence and memorable experiences.
