How practical is the flat transformation done in the movie 'Wake up Sid' ? https://preview.redd.it/cwahua6hhqje1.png?width=925&format=png&auto=webp&s=262981545a5a9fcdca97d5723f235fbdc16c7c3f Is it a good idea to rent an unfurnished, unkempt flat and furnish it over time? Many people move out after a year or two, so is it worth investing in new or second-hand furniture and décor, especially when sharing expenses with a flatmate? How do you typically handle furnishing and moving when relocating to a new place? Also, do landlords generally allow tenants to paint the walls? 1 6 replies
Appalling state of footpaths This is the state of footpaths in Marol, where I live. Encroached, ugly, filthy as hell. I sprained my back walking on these horrible footpaths. I’ve complained on the BMC website, Twitter (marking relevant ward profile) and now I’m posting here. Enough is enough. I’m not going to rest until this is fixed. Please suggest ways to escalate this to whoever is responsible. FYI Muraji Patel is the elected representative on this ward. 4 20 replies
Thinking of shifting from Bangalore to Mumbai/Navi Mumbai. How is life nowadays in Mumbai compared to 2010-2014? Hi All. I used to live in Mumbai during 2010-2014 and absolutely loved it.

But the local folks are just unbearably weird,... 2 20 replies
