In a country where food is both heritage and emotion, Zorawar Kalra has done what few dared — he’s reimagined Indian dining for the world. As the Founder & Managing Director of Massive Restaurants Pvt. Ltd., Zorawar stands at the forefront of India’s culinary evolution, blending innovation, identity, and ambition to craft a new global language for Indian cuisine.
Over the past decade, Massive Restaurants has grown into one of India’s most influential and decorated hospitality empires, with 40+ restaurants and over 100 cloud kitchens across six countries. Each concept under its umbrella has redefined its category — from the molecular mastery of Masala Library, the bold pan-Asian flair of Pa Pa Ya, and the soulful sophistication of Made in Punjab, to the Thai-inspired chic of Bo-Tai, the youthful exuberance of Farzi Café, and the Latin vibrancy of Swan and Mamma Killa. Even the fast-casual vertical, with Louis Burgers and Nashville Fried Chicken, carries the Massive signature — creative, disruptive, and unapologetically original.
Now, with the launch of Farzi in New York City’s Midtown Manhattan, Zorawar’s mission extends beyond borders. His goal is not just to represent Indian cuisine globally, but to position it at the heart of the world’s fine-dining conversation — bold, confident and modern.
With his fearless approach and relentless drive, Zorawar Kalra is not only leading the next chapter of India’s culinary story — he’s rewriting the world’s idea of what Indian dining can be.
