Vikrant Massey is bringing the world of Musafir Cafe off the screen and into the mountains. The actor, who played Chander in the Netflix series, is set to open two Musafir Cafés, one each in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Construction is already underway, and Hindustan Times has an exclusive still from one of the locations, giving a first glimpse of the café as it comes together against the mountain backdrop.
The cafés are being designed as replicas of the one seen in the show, and the project will also include around 20 rooms for artist residencies. The upcoming cafés are being planned to retain the cosy look and feel of the space seen in the series, while also serving as creative spaces for artists. Construction is already underway at both locations. It’s an extension of the world of Musafir Cafe beyond the screen. The idea is to recreate the warmth and aesthetic of the Musafir Cafe seen in the show while adapting it to the natural surroundings of the mountains. There is a lot of thought going into the space, especially the artist residency component, which will be an important part of the project. The aim is to create something that feels like a natural extension of the world of Musafir Cafe. The exclusive still captures the café at an early stage of construction, with the stone and wooden framework coming together against the mountain backdrop. the new spaces are also being planned with dedicated rooms for artist residencies, giving the project a purpose that goes beyond recreating a popular screen location While the design draws from the café featured in the series. Netflix has renewed the series for a second season, with Vikrant, Vedika and Mahima set to return as Chander, Sudha and Preeti. The new season will continue their story from where the first chapter ended.
