Lounging doesn't get more lyrical than this

From Geeta Dutt to Elvis and Qawwali, Harry's has just about all the tracks a Karaoke bar could stock

Step into Harry's, and it's music that holds you, from beginning to end. An amalgamation of rock, pop and reggae play together to create a tune rare and unheard. We requested for our favourite track to try out our otherwise amateur singing skills, and whoa, it worked. A far cry from noisy lounges and run-of-the-mill clubs, the karaoke bar hopes to spin music in the right direction. We follow.

Burman to Bohemia
The all-new joint is a buzzing place for not only those who swear by music, but want to sing it with the right words. The bar claims to play any song you request, and that's quite true, we checked.u00a0 Simply grab the mic and get going, or let their resident band Dhwani take over when you're tired. The genre varies to just about anything under the sun; from Geeta Dutt, Elvis Presley, RD Burman and AR Rahman, there's just about everything. "I have been a music geek all my life. As much as it sounds cliched, I wanted to open such a place ever since I was young. Apart from the commercial music that we play on weekdays, there are also Sufi and Qawwali sessions to make sure that everyone has their share of fun," beams Ranjeev Kumar, the proud owner.

Dim delight
Rustic decor, dim lighting and a soothing ambience welcome you here. The place also boasts of two 50-seater lounges which are sound-proof, so that you can enjoy private moments when one lounge is pre-occupied, or just sit back and enjoy two different musical performances. The interiors of the place are done up in dark wood, natural leather and hand-blown bricks, which blend to lend a relaxed ambience. The food is all pre-plated, which includes Indian, Oriental and Chinese. This apart, a well-stocked bar ensures that your glass (and spirits) are always full. Get out of the bathroom and get there.
