Bollywood Art at Gabbar Bistro & Bar, Singapore
- Location: Singapore
- Year: 2019
How about some Bollywood art in Singapore? Gabbar Bistro & Bar is a Bollywood themed Indian Bistro & Bar in Clarke Quay, Singapore. They treat their visitors with foot-tapping LIVE Bollywood music with a fine dine experience.
Bollywood Art Is Not Just For Indians
Realistic portraits of Gabbar Singh, Ranbir Kapoor from Rockstar, Deepika Padukone adorn the walls here and Afzan Pirzade is the man behind these filmy portraits.
During a 14-day trip to Singapore, he spent time with the owners and tried to understand what is it that they wanted. Far removed from the hustle bustle of India, expats miss their home country. Also, for those who have only heard of India and its famed Bollywood, Gabbar Bar & Bistro is an opportunity to experience something different from the regular high end lounges that Clark Quay offers.
Afzan’s philosophy of hyper-realism fit quite well here. The more realistic the artwork would be, the closer home the point of it would hit. So when he set about painting each wall with his brush, the idea was to get each eyebrow and skin shade picture perfect.
The poses chosen were iconic scenes from contemporary movies like RockOn and Rockstar. Gabbar from Sholey ofcourse tops the charts because he rings out a different vibe altogether. It helps when the artist loves the movies and the characters equally as the client and his preferences.
The freedom given in the project showed in the details. Every portrait showcases the ace artist’s exceptional skills and precise detailing. You might fall in love at first sight, just like in Bollywood movies.
And if there is still some time left, there is always the Indian food, music and gins to make you forget that it you’re not in Singapore but on a Bollywood set.
