Britannia & Co co-owner Boman Kohinoor passes away

In a sudden turn of events, Boman Rashid Kohinoor, senior partner of Britannia & Co Restaurant, passed away on Wednesday. The 97-year-old Kohinoor was Bombay’s most beloved inhabitant. Arguably India’s biggest fan of the British royal family, the Parsi restaurateur was reportedly suffering from heart issues and breathe his last at Parsee General Hospital on Wednesday evening at about 4:45 PM.

Boman Kohinoor’s father Rashid opened Britannia & Co Restaurant in Mumbai in 1923 and Kohinoor worked there his whole life. During WWII, young Boman and his father spent nights at the restaurant, worried that it would be attacked, owing to its proximity to the city’s ports.

Under his leadership, Britannia has gone on to become one of Mumbai’s most sought-after eateries for Parsi and Irani cuisine.

The decor reflected his love of the British royals. He was the star of a social media campaign in 2016 when his dream came true. He met Prince William and his wife Kate during their week-long trip to India and Bhutan.
