G.O.A.T India Tour 2025 ft. Lionel Messi
Football. For some, it began with a worn-out ball on a dusty ground. For others, with late-night matches and whispered cheers so parents wouldn’t wake. For some, it’s childhood memories. Some of us know football by the names of the legends who play it. Now, imagine the greatest of them all coming to your country. Imagine welcoming him into your home. Imagine a nation preparing every street, every stadium, every corner, to show the world just how much it loves this sport. Imagine the roar of millions, all for one person. For every child who grew up saying “Messi”, this is more than a dream and that’s what we wanted to capture. The pulse, the energy, the love that India feels for football. The bustling streets, the quiet villages, the children in their bedrooms who grew up playing FIFA, all preparing for the football match of a lifetime.
The Night Manager
Have you ever wondered what really happens behind the bar after 3 AM? One night with the District team at PCO and we found the guy who runs the show while the rest of us just try to find the DJ booth. Meet Dheeraj, the Operations Manager at PCO, Delhi. No, he’s not the one behind the bar or on the dance floor, but trust us, he’s the reason both function like clockwork. From handling wild entries to fulfilling our late-night food cravings, Dheeraj and his team are the ones who hold the night together while the rest of us? Well, we’re just trying to hold on to our buzz. Because behind every good party, is a great manager.
Father's Day
When we’re little, we believe our dads can do anything: Lift us with one arm or fix anything with a screwdriver. Then we grow up… start shying away from their hugs, rolling our eyes at their advice, and forgetting to call them back. And then, we grow up a little more and realise our strength, our kindness, our silliness... it’s all him. Dads don’t always say much, they just show up. Always around, always in their own quiet way. So, with District, we asked four head chefs to bring in their kids to work. To cook together, share laughter, make memories, to feel all the little things that make being a dad so special. And somewhere between the mess and the spills in the kitchen, we tried to capture what fatherhood really looks like.
The Monsoon Season
In cities that never sleep, among people who rarely take a break. Monsoon has a way of slowing the world down.But behind every cozy corner at a restaurant, the books we get lost in at our ‘table for one’... someone in the back is working tirelessly, brewing our tea, serving us a warm plate of food, moving through slippery floors with soaked shoes. They hum a little tune while cooking in the kitchen, walk through puddles to make sure we’re served on time, and show up, every day, with a quiet pride and love for their work. Maybe that cozy feeling we get on rainy days isn’t just about the weather, but about the people who quietly, in their own way, make it feel like a warm hug.
