An Attractive Destination

Dehradun used to be an institutional area in the late 90’s but by the early 2000s, the city started developing its residential, commercial and recreational sectors to appeal to migrating families, school and college-going youth and salaried employees. Real estate agents and private builders stepped in to take over the residential sector, corporations stepped in to develop the commercial sector and entrepreneurs stepped in to establish recreational zones in and near the commercial and residential sectors.

The entrepreneurs invested in restaurants, movie theatres, cafes, bars and game zones to take advantage of the rapidly increasing young crowd in the city. As more and more institutional groups set up colleges in the city, restaurants and movie theatres started observing a rush of crowds.

There were already many restaurants in Dehradun in the late 90’s but the establishments catered to the well-off families who would dine at the restaurant every once in a while. But in the early 2000s many budget-friendly restaurants opened their doors to attract the young school and college crowd, and it worked! The new budget-friendly restaurants became the new hot spots for the youth of the city and started enjoying a profitable crowd round the week, especially on the weekends. Birthday parties, farewell parties, social outings, alumni gatherings and teacher-student gatherings started to become a regular event at these new restaurants.

In the late 90’s, there were a selective few single-screen moviehalls in Dehradun. Everyone would visit these malls to watch the latest movie releases but with the increasing young population in the city, entrepreneurs and movie theatre brands set up multi-screen movie theatres in the city. A few of these multi-screen movie theatres were set up in the newly-established shopping malls across the city. One such multi-screen theatre was established by the known movie theatre brand – PVR – in Pacific Mall, Dehradun.

With such development, the city of Dehradun has become an attractive destination for the residents, visitors, tourists and travelers. The city is no more just an institutional hub in the state but has established itself as an all-rounded developed city, offering the best of amenities to all.

My niece, family and amusement

When my little niece was sent away to boarding school in Dehradun, there was an uproar in my family. All the elders were furious and the children were scared. No one seemed to support the idea and everyone started calling up my brother and sister-in-law to give them a piece of their mind. At that time, no one could understand the logic behind this rough decision and the family kept making illogical plans to bring her back home. It took over three months for my brother and his wife to warm everyone to the decision. They wanted to provide a good education to my niece, which was not possible in their hometown due to a lack of good schools in the district. While most of the family stopped making further plans to bring her back home, some kept enquiring about the toys shop in Dehradun so that they could get some toys delivered to her hostel dorm. Her grandfather even took a step further and announced that he would buy a gift shop in Dehradun to be able to send gifts to the little girl o...

Old memories

I am a twenty five year old woman but whenever I find time, I visit a popular toys shop in Dehradun . Dehradun is very close to my town and having a developed city so near to me has always been a great thing. The city is a 30 minute drive from my town and whenever I need a change of air or am feeling blue, I just head over to Dehradun and hang out at Hamleys toy store in Pacific Mall. I find the toy store very warming as it reminds me of my childhood. My late grandfather would take me to a toys shop and a gift shop in Dehradun on the weekends and would encourage me to pick a small toy or an accessory of my choice. I look back at these memories with great love. To relive the memories, I visit the Hamleys toy store and the Archies gift store in Pacific Mall, Dehradun . Sometimes, my brother tags along and I encourage him to pick a small toy or an accessory just like how my grandfather did with me. Lately, my brother has been accompanying me on these trips more frequently. I think he h...

The New Mall and My Cousins

Before, shoppers would need to travel to interior markets or to other shopping malls afar to take care of their shopping needs and wants but now, they have a shopping centre right next to them. Now, the shoppers have access to the best of apparel, footwear, accessories, lifestyle and electronics brand outlets, all under one roof, just beside them! There is no doubt about the fact that Pacific Mall will soon be labelled as the best shopping mall in NSP by the shoppers and other mall visitors. My extended family resides in NSP Pitampura and has not stopped mentioning the mall on our weekly calls. My cousin is a fashion icon in her college and would have to travel to a mall in West Delhi for her seasonal shopping sprees but now, she just drives down to the mall, which takes her hardly 10 minutes, and is back home with a...
