Mumbai, 22nd May 2024: In the heart of Mumbai, a unique fusion of music and cuisine is creating waves. Chaitnya Sharma, popularly known as SlowCheeta, has ignited the city’s cultural scene with his latest EP, “Scene Mein Bawaal.” This time, his artistic influence extends beyond music and into the culinary realm, partnering with Rocket Man Pizza to unveil the innovative ‘Kar De Kaa?’ menu.
SlowCheeta’s EP, with its standout track “Kar De Kaa?”, delves into the raw and dynamic world of the Indian hip-hop scene. The phrase “Kar De Kaa?”—a colloquial challenge from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, meaning “Should I do it?”—captures the spirit of defying the odds. Rocket Man Pizza has encapsulated this daring attitude into a series of gourmet pizzas that are as bold as the music they represent.
Each pizza on this limited-edition menu is a narrative in itself. The ‘Slow Tikka’ features a striking combination of three peppercorn chicken tikka, brie, and truffle oil. The ’90s Ke Ladke’ reinvents the classic Bombay-style mutton keema on a contemporary pizza base. The signature ‘Kar de Kaa?’ pizza pairs rich butter paneer with stuffed pickled chilies, a feta drizzle, and grilled lacha onions, promising a creamy yet spicy experience. Another highlight, the ‘Bawaal’ pizza, embodies the monsoon spirit with tandoori achari mushrooms, masala corn cream, and pickled onions, reminiscent of Mumbai’s beloved street snack, Bhutta.
SlowCheeta views this collaboration as an extension of his artistry. “Food and music are universal languages that cross cultural barriers,” he says. “This menu isn’t just about flavor; it’s about feeding the spirit of anyone who dares to dream big.”
Rocket Man Pizza’s founders, Chef Anand Morwani and Rohan Mangalorkar, see this collaboration as a reflection of their innovative journey. “The ‘Kar De Kaa?’ menu embodies our philosophy of innovation and audacity,” says Morwani. “It’s about pushing boundaries, in both taste and tradition.”

About Rocketman Pizza
Rocket Man Pizza is located in the heart of Mumbai, in Bandra. Two friends – Chef Anand Morwani and restaurateur Rohan Mangalorkar who went to Detroit, came back with an idea to start a pizza delivery kitchen in Mumbai. However, in a neighbourhood teeming with pizza joints, they wanted to do something different. And so, they started their journey by bringing Detroit-style square pizza slices to Mumbai’s tables. Soon, they introduced 8-inch radically light, round New York-style sourdough pizzas with ultra-thin and crispy crusts.
