Four reasons to celebrate

Opus at the Creek has a fabulous festive line-up for this week, especially if you are Punjaban at heart

Makar Sankranti this, Pongal that, we've heard enough now, haven't we? What about the four other festivals lined-up for the same 3 days? Does anyone even know that Lohri's also lined up for the January 13?

Even if no one else does, we're happy that Carlton Braganza took note of this Punjabi harvest festival and organized a Lohri bash for everyone who's Punjabi at heart. Head to Opus at the Creek for some typical fare from the Land of Five Rivers and regale to the pounding sounds of Bhangra...

"We are a stage centric, live music-oriented place," says Carlton Braganza, the owner of Opus at the Creek.

"We don't like restricting music to any genre and believe in representing all kinds, including Bhangra," he adds.
So here's the line up for the whole week at this Buddhist themed getaway...
