Get ready to channel your inner Bollywood star because Indi 16 is hosting the biggest Bollywood Karaoke Contest in town this Sunday, September 21st!

This one-night-only event promises all the glitz, glam, and filmi flair you could dream of. Contestants will battle it out on stage in front of a live crowd, showing off their Kishore Kumar classics and Shreya Ghoshal hits. But when it comes to Indi 16, no matter what the event is, their food is always the star of the show. So, what happens when you combine their famous Sunday Roast with a karaoke showdown? A weekend of perfection! I have all the incredible details you want to know, so keep reading to find out more!

Feast Mode Activated
Indi 16’s Indo-global fusion menu is packed with dishes you won’t find anywhere else. Here are some of my ‘can’t miss’ dishes from their menu: start with the Himalayan trio chips (potato, cassava, and plantain). Then dig into the famous Samosadilla – a fiery samosa-meets-quesadilla creation with tamarind mint chutney. Vegans can even tuck into the Bao Soya Kabuli, stuffed with minty-spicy goodness.
For the meat lovers, try the Meatie the Meet platter of juicy kebabs to the Tandoori-spiced Salmon Bukhara and the Goan-inspired Espetada Chicken skewers. No one can go wrong with the buttery Dilli Makhan Wala (choose from lentil, bocconcini, or chicken), paired with garlic naan, flaky paratha, or soft pav.
And because no meal is complete without something sweet, Indi 16 delivers with desserts like Thandai White Chocolate Mousse, Gulab Jamun with Kunafa, and their show-stopping Paan Tiramisu!

Sunday Roast With A Twist
Not in the mood for singing? Indi 16’s got you covered with a Sunday Roast that flips tradition on its head. From 12 PM to 4 PM, enjoy a hearty roast chicken, lamb, fish, or veggie plate with all the trimmings, plus a complimentary drink – all for just AED 75! And if you’re looking to enjoy some of your fan-favourite dishes along side the roast, there will be a limited a la carte menu too.
Sunday’s at Indi 16 are extra extra special because from 12-6PM kids are allowed, which means even family can enjoy the Roast together! Little ones can enjoy a dedicated kids menu (AED 25) featuring mini pizzas, chicken tenders, fish fingers, plus add-on milkshakes or juices for just AED 15. And while the whole family eats, a live DJ keeps the vibes alive, making it the perfect laid-back Sunday hangout.

Drink With A View, Anyone?
Of course, no visit to Indi 16 is complete without exploring their signature bar. From rare Indian single malts like Amrut, Rampur, and Godawan to Sula wines and fun desi-inspired cocktails like the Chai Martini, Jamuntini, and the boozy Mango Lassi, the drinks are just as memorable as the food, I definitely attest to that. Sip them on the shisha terrace, which also comes with some seriously stunning skyline views!
The Perfect Week At Indi 16
