Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have been spending time in Bengaluru, and the couple’s recent outings in the city have caught everyone’s attention. After celebrating Diwali in Bengaluru with family and having their festive feast catered by French chef Amiel Guerin’s Amiel Gourmet, Deepika was recently seen at Nila, a restaurant in Cambridge Layout. The restaurant shared a picture with the actor on its Instagram Stories, thanking her for dining with them.
Deepika Padukone Visits Nila In Bengaluru
Sharing the selfie, Nila wrote, “The moon found company in the brightest star last night at Nila. A stellar way to curtain call the end of Ladakh chapter.” While Deepika’s visit has got people talking, Nila is also an interesting place to check out if you enjoy exploring regional Indian food and creative cocktails.
Founded by Chef Rahul Sharma, Nila is an ingredient-focused restaurant that explores India’s lesser-known regional food traditions through contemporary cooking techniques. Instead of sticking to one cuisine, the restaurant introduces a new culinary chapter every quarter, drawing inspiration from different regions, their ingredients and traditional cooking methods.
The restaurant’s approach is not about recreating traditional dishes but understanding the stories, ingredients and techniques behind them. Its menus evolve with every new chapter, making the dining experience different as it explores another part of India’s culinary landscape.

Nila’s Moon-Themed Cocktail Bar, Moonjar
Another interesting feature of Nila is Moonjar, an intimate cocktail bar located above the restaurant. As the name suggests, the bar carries forward the moon-inspired identity and has a rather unusual cocktail programme. Its menu features nine signature drinks inspired by the eight phases of the moon, with the ninth representing the sun.
The bar focuses on low-ABV cocktails, using ingredients such as soju, vermouth and wine. Some of its interesting creations include Pink Moon, made with salted rose cordial and soju, and Eclipse Float, which combines cream soda, vanilla and cultured dairy sorbet. Another signature drink, Penumbra, brings together red wine, cherries, molasses and house-made cola.
