The Story Behind the Stage
Founded in 2023. Built for chaos. Designed for impact.
Samrat Puri
Samrat Puri founded Dhaba Live in 2023 with a singular vision: to bring world-class F&B execution to India's most demanding event environments.
With a deep understanding of what it takes to deliver under pressure, Samrat built a company that thrives in the chaos behind the scenes — where timing is everything, and every plate matters.
From conceptualising menus that complement the energy of a concert to managing multi-city operations at scale, Samrat drives Dhaba Live with hands-on intensity and an obsessive focus on quality.
