Delhi: Winters & Shopping

I had heard a lot about Delhi from some work colleagues but never really thought I would live in the city. Having been brought up in Mumbai, my whole life was scheduled to be spent in the city but an interesting work opportunity made me reconsider my decisions and encouraged me to explore the capital of the country.

I landed in Delhi last month and found a perfect flat that I could call home in Rajouri Garden, West Delhi. It was very near to my office and had a market within walking distance. All major necessities were at an arm’s length here. I loved it!

Last week, after taking three long weeks to settle in, I had a weekend to myself for the first time. I knew I would have to build a winter wardrobe here and had already brought some light woollen clothes from Mumbai but I had underestimated the harshness of Delhi winters by a huge margin. A colleague suggested me to visit Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden, which I found to be at a 3 km distance from my new home. So, I dedicated my Saturday to shopping at what was considered to be one of the Best malls in Delhi.

I woke up, got ready and rushed to the mall around 12 pm. The mall did not seem that crowded at first but with time, it started to fill up. It was a huge mall – so huge that there were floors of brand stores and kiosks. One could buy all kinds of apparel and accessories here. The stores were exclusive, offering the best of branded merchandise and collections to patrons. There were cafes, food outlets, food court and restaurants to give the best of dining options to the visitors. As soon as I spotted these, I knew why Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden is one of the best malls in Delhi. All my needs could be taken care of here, as simple as that.

Of course, I spent way over my budget but I returned home as happy as a toddler who just got her hands on a secret stash of candies. I spent my Sunday trying on everything I had bought and video calling my friends and family to show off my glamorous purchases.

College, Malls and Dreams

  I lived in Dwarka, New Delhi for 3 years, from 2013 to 2016, for my college education. I rented a bed in a paying guest accommodation in Dwarka Sector 13 and would travel to Dwarka Sector 9 six days a week. This was my first time living away from home and it took me a while to get used to the independent lifestyle. Things became better when I made a few good friends in college and formed a good social circle. After the college classes, some of us would want to hang out and to find a decent place, we would visit all the malls around looking for a dining establishment where we could sit and relax for hours on end. My friends and I must have visited over 4 malls in a week but found none of them to be operational. We did spot a few food joints but the rush of customers would force us to leave the establishments after our meals. We wished and hoped that someone would build a fully-operational Mall in Dwarka for us but it just did not happen in the three years of our college lives. ...
