Antara Spa is located at The Club Mumbai and celebrates 10 years this December. The Club was born out of his vision to create an upscale recreation facility for the elite of the city residing in the affluent residential neighbourhoods of Juhu and Andheri. The Club has been a trailblazer and a pioneer since its inception – be it specialised tennis courts or the state of the art gymnasium or the Oriental restaurant – Oriental Wok. The Antara Spa is one such endeavour.
The evening was celebrated with a glittering set of invited guests on Friday, 2nd December which was hosted by Mr. Dinesh Khanna (Chairman, The Club Mumbai) and wife Nishi Khanna.
Guests indulged in a quick foot/shoulder/back massage by Antara Spa therapists followed by Cocktails & Dinner with Live Music.
