The best thing about this section of Bollywood Center point is its ambiance, one it’s on a great height and then you have a lake view, in the evening it looks like “WOW” . Late evenings when you are with your family you will feel the breeze, wooden furniture , wooden Machhan, the classy cutlery & crockery gives you this “Elite feeling of having Saoji in the city ” said F&B Manager Shiva.
