Just read about the #Espresso incident. If I remember correctly, they had a space for praying under the stairs last year.

I personally think #espresso was just afraid that veena malik might pop in to pray now that Hero TV won't let her.

There is a prayer area at #Espresso it's called a chair. U face it towards qibla and pray. No one will stop u.
