The trip to an Indian Mall......

Well.. done with my b.tech..and absolutely nothing to do in my native, am on a indefinite vacation! and... i started my journey .. the first being Aamchi Mumbai... Mumbai..., now..this is a city thats fascinated me since i was a child. Everything about it has cought my eyes!! As in... i even like the crowd thats considered to be the biggest trouble. But well.... it was a trip to a mall in new bombay that left me astounded! Now... probably this is my first time to a full fledged mall in India... and.. since i havent been to any here, i didnt have any expectations.. i thought i shud be a decent place... air-conditioned.. lot of shops.. some of them exclusively for window shopping!... blah..blah... anyway... i set off to visit the place..hoping to vatch up with my never ending shopping! my cousin took me there to watch a movie in the cineplex... and..along with that we planned the shopping too...well..we were late for the evening show..and had to wait for the second show....so..okie...lets start looking the whole place... BHAM!!!.... right at the centre of the mall was a podium.. blaring music of the latest hindi dance numbers.... and..a big crowd to see the show... i hoped to see some cinestar...(hope against hope )... and i pushed through some people... to see??(*^%$ Little kids dancing...they were so confident in doing the steps.... and parents cheering in and taking pictures...ahem... well..iu've seen one of this kind in mall in dubai. okie...something new in this place.. then i see some huge cartoon dressed men.. u know..the kind who r involved in catching the kids attention knid..anyway..some of those in a corner... okie..fine... we went to the top floor ..thats where the movie runs... and... in that floor is the food court too... phew!!! now.. that was what i thought... so many restaurents... exactly like some mall abroad... when did all this happen??? probably being in coimbatore and palakkad for the past 4 yrs... i didnt know the changes in the metro.. hey.. but wait.. madras didnt change like this!! thats another metro .... cochin hasnt changed... but well..possibly change catches hold of mumbai faster!...the flooring..the shops.. the variety in the food court... the interiors! everything was... Nothing like i've seen here... and the crowd!!! ahem...i was ashamed to have had dressed like that!!! but... not quite so either... lot of people dressed in the typical maharashtrian manner were there. like say... their typical bunch of green bangles... the typical clothing etc...and to compensate... i saw ppl in halters..tank tops... real bold clothes...and surprisingly..most of them werent single..or along with the partners... rather..with kids...babies!!!.. again..i was left amazed..okie..okie...calm down...that was the only thing i kept repeating to myself... we got the tickets for the latest Indiana Jones movie...have 2 hrs to spend..and we thought..lets get some shopping done.. and after hopping from one shop to another.. i realised.. only window shopping is possible!!!! ultimately... i ended up getting to novels... they are the same everywhere...then..left to the food court... ate at the chinese place... it was half past 10 and still the. crowd was alarming!!.... by 1 30 am were we through the movie.. nice one... if it was hopeless flick..i would have enjoyed the seating in the theatre!!! ahh.!! a refreshing treat! at the end of the day.....i was awe struck at the way the place has changed..and how people are out,... i mean really out for enjoying a saturday night!!
