Bollywood icon Sanjay Dutt, often fondly known as Sanju Baba, launched his first fine dining restaurant, Solaire, on 21 September 2025 at 7 pm.

The announcement and teaser were made earlier in September via Dutt’s Instagram – “I’ve eaten around the world. Now it’s my turn to plate it.”

What to Expect: Ambience & Menu

Ambience

Solaire aims for understated luxury. Expect plush seating, warm ambient lighting, and interiors that balance comfort with elegance — designed to serve both power lunches and relaxed dinners without feeling stuffy.

Cuisine

The menu is global, drawing on Sanjay Dutt’s travels and tastes. Diners can expect:

• Pan-Asian and broader East/ Southeast Asian flavours

• Mediterranean-inspired plates

• Modern Indian interpretations

• Chinese specialities

• A full-service bar with curated cocktails and a social drinking atmosphere

What It Means for the Mumbai Dining Scene

Solaire is clearly positioning itself as more than just a celebrity-backed restaurant. Its BKC location and serious hospitality partnership suggest a strategic play — aiming to appeal both to Mumbai’s corporate crowd and discerning diners.

If the restaurant can deliver consistently strong food, ambiance, and service, it could become a noteworthy entrant in Mumbai’s fine-dining circuit rather than just a one-off star venture.

Location and Partners

Solaire is situated inside the Grand Hyatt, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai — a prime address for upscale dining and corporate footfall.
Dutt has partnered with hospitality and food-service entrepreneurs Ishaan Varma and Amit Lakhyani to bring this vision to life.

Final Thoughts

The launch on 21 September 2025 marks a bold new chapter in Sanjay Dutt’s career, shifting from blockbuster films to block-buster dining experiences.
