Hindu Gymkhana, Karachi. c.1930s

Established in 1925, the Hindu Gymkhana was the first public building in Karachi to boldly adopt the Mughal-Revival style. It was a club for the Hindu upper classes, who formed a strong commercial elite in Karachi in the years before Independence in 1947.

The building is designed by Muslim architect Agha Ahmed Hussain and the plan and massing was based on the Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah in Agra. Hindu Gymkhana now houses the National Academy of Performing Arts.
