Save Indian Coffee House

I was recently watching a short video on time.com and it was about this coffee house in Delhi called the Indian Coffee House. News flash- It's endangered! And it's being slowly choked by the Baristas and Cafe Coffee Days of the world. Don't get me wrong- I'm not an anti-capitalist or someone who hates giant corporations. You can find the link to the video here-

Apparently, this place once buzzed with politicians and artists...I guess it was the good old days when the art of conversation was practised over a steaming cuppa coffee. I wonder what would happen if someone started a "Save Indian Coffee House" group on Facebook. I guess it could once again regain it's position as the happening place to be in. If wishes were horses...
