This Thursday, Mumbai will turn to Gotham with the launch of a first-of-its-kind Batman Celebration Party. &ldquo;DC Comics has declared July 23 as Batman&rsquo;s birthday. Since he is one of the most popular comic book characters in India, we decided we&rsquo;d get fans together,&rdquo; says Jatin Verma, founder of Comic Con India, the local comic-based convention.

Guests at the party can look forward to Batman-masked stewards, Gotham inspired d&eacute;cor and a shoppe that sells all things Batman &mdash; posters, tees and knick knacks. Proprietor of the party&rsquo;s venue, He Said She Said, Harsh Samor will play the good guy and offer a flat 10 per cent discount to all guests who come in wearing Batman attire. &ldquo;For eats, there are Batman&rsquo;s wings, a twist to chicken wings served in barbeque, desi curry and Chicago-style sauces. There&rsquo;s also the Poison Ivy salad laden with lettuce and tomatoes that&rsquo;s a must-try,&rdquo; he says.
The drinks menu features five specials. The Joker is a vodka, sprite and blue berry breewzer, while Batman is a dark rum version of the Long Island iced tea. &ldquo;Joker&rsquo;s smile and Riddler&rsquo;s riddle are the two shots we&rsquo;ve created for the night,&rdquo; says Samor, adding that all shot glasses will wear tiny fabric capes to go with the theme.
Verma admits that Batman has one serious threat. And that&rsquo;s from The Joker, with several guests preferring to dress like the villain, instead. &ldquo;&lsquo;Why so serious?&rsquo; is one of the most popular dialogues from the movie franchise, with fans preferring to dress like Heath Ledger,&rdquo; he says.

Before Ben Affleck utters the words on screen next March, here&rsquo;s your chance to play Joker or Hero on the superhero&rsquo;s birthday
