It was 7.30 pm on a Thursday when this writer arrived at Silly in Khar for their weekly music gig night. At a restobar, in the Bandra-Khar area, one expects an acoustic experience with a musician singing soft love songs, guitar in hand. On the other hand, clubs tend to lean towards electronic dance music, and can be overcrowded, with patrons coming solely to dance. 

Silly tries to strikes a balance. With a capacity of around 135 people, within 15 seated at the bar, the proprietor Karan Nohria hopes patrons enjoy being able to roam around with their drinks, as the music plays on.
