Don't miss to talk to Mr Sagar

Meet Mr Sagar, the owner of the property. Though he was born in a filmy family he chased his passion for hotels. He is the grandson of Mr Ramanand Sagar who brought the iconic Ramayana to Indian television. Started with a small nursery, now is a full-fledged villa with so much attention to details. Mr Sagar has merged his knowledge of both films and hotels which is where I think the character depth comes from.
