A Few Of Actor Barun Sobti's Favourite Things
United Coffee House
"So, Delhi has changed a lot since I moved. It used to be TGI Fridays, but now we usually end up visiting Gurgaon. Since I’m new and my friends live there, it feels like a new place every time. There's a great sports bar at the Radisson in Aerocity, but United Coffee House is one of my favourite spots in Connaught Place."

"Even though there's a perfume called Sauvignon by Chanel that's trending a lot these days, I like both Polo Blue and Polo Black."
Australia
When asked about his favourite travel destination, Sobti offered an interesting perspective. He said, "What I love about Australia is the brightness. It's paced in a certain way. Because the economy is strong and geographically well-placed, it can't be easily attacked. So, there's no fear, and that reflects in their demeanor."
Nicobar
For his favourite homegrown brand, Sobti mentioned Nicobar. "It's really good. Their sensibility is truly unique and classy."
Converse
"Converse and Nike are two of my favourite sneaker brands".
Murakami
When asked about his favourite writer, he stated, "I think the most complex, yet accessible writer is Murakami. I also really enjoy the short stories of H.G. Wells."
Cartier
Sobti can often be seen embarking on one biking adventure after another. His must-have accessory is sunglasses, and he particularly loves his Cartier pair.
