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.

The New Mall and My Cousins

   Ever since the new mall -  Pacific Mall  - has opened in NSP Pitampura, the life of the residents of the area has become more convenient. 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...

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...
