THE STORY
VIJAY (DJ VJ) & RIHANA ARORA
Cafe la Musica is owned and run by DJ Vijay Arora (VJ to his friends) and his beautiful wife, Rihana.
Vijay began his musical career in in Bangalore, playing in various hotspots across this dynamic city. His first permanent stint was as the "DJ & Music Consultant" for The Cosmo Village, Bangalore's first living room restaurant, where art and food united in a decadent living room set-up. Vijay then moved on to become the resident DJ at Taika, one of Bangalore' hottest lounge/ nightclubs.
In 2006, the couple decided to relocate to the sandy shores of Goa, a place they both loved and had visited often.
A household name in India's DJ circuit, in Goa Vijay took on the position of "Head of Entertainment- Events & DJ" for the popular Loungefly, a lounge bar that boasted the longest bar in Asia with a 2000sqft nightclub replete with an outdoor stage and a state of the art sound system.
Following the closing of Loungefly (due to political pressure), the couple decided to take the opportunity to finally follow through on their dream of opening their own place- a stylized space where music, art and food came together in a laid-back, yet sophisticated milieu....and voila, Cafe la Musica was born!
