The original DNA of Underdoggs is still in-tact, but with a new appeal we feel people will love.” Said Rish Saini – Co-CEO. “The décor is more chic and classy in Jalandhar with the incorporation of a lot of green elements. Plants are part of the interiors throughout the outlet to give a very fresh vibe along with artwork installations.
