At least eight people have been killed and 33 others wounded in a bomb attack on a restaurant in India's western city of Pune, officials say.
The explosion tore through the German Bakery, which is popular with tourists, in Koregaon Park.
The blast, which Maharashtra state officials say was caused by a bomb, is the first major attack India has seen since the Mumbai bombings in 2008.
The nationalities of the dead are not known.
But at least one of the dead is reported to be a foreign national.
The explosion at the restaurant, on North Main Road, happened at about 1900 (1330 GMT), when it was packed with diners.
"We heard a big noise and we all rushed out. The impact was so much that there were tiny body parts everywhere," Vinod Dhale, who works at the restaurant, told Reuters news agency.
Anti-terror squad officers have gone to the scene.
"There has been a bomb blast," senior police official Rajendra Sonawane said.
"There was an abandoned bag which seems to have contained some IED [improvised explosive device]."
Initial reports suggested a gas cylinder had exploded.
The German Bakery is near the Osho Ashram, a mystic centre popular with visitors to Pune.
