It is a unique role that requires both methodical planning and execution, along with a strong spirit of entrepreneurship to deal with the dynamic, fast growing and challenging path that we are on. We are very fortunate to have Harry joining us.”

Mr. Thaliwal will oversee all operational aspects including strategy, growth and pre-opening projects.
