Diljit's concert honest review Contrary to other reviews of other cities. Mumbai was very well organised. Mahalaxmi traffic was nightmare but Mumbai police had issued an advisory. 1) Mahalaxmi has long walk from racecourse to station that was only the sad part. Mumbai police everywhere guiding police 2) female portable loos were managed and kind of clean. I went twice and there were tissues as well and water to wash hands. 3) f& b was good, slightly crowded but wasn't too bad. 4) diljit started at 8 and ended up at 10. He... 1 2 replies
Just waking up from a nightmare in which in was fined ₹11k and car impounded for no parking. So I've had a traumatic dream. I live in a residential area that's not really got any traffic but there's odd-even parking at many places. In the dream, I drove to a neighbouring area and didn't see any sign and parked.

People living in Mulund/Thane. How often do y'all hangout in Bandra or SoBo? I recently moved back home (Mulund) after living abroad for a very long time. Ever since I've been trying to socialize a little bit and meet like-minded people either through work or dating. Weirdly enough, 99% of the people I meet live in Bandra, Andheri or Worli. This results in me having to make the commute there every time to hangout with them. I happily did it for a few months knowing that all the new restaurants etc that I wanna try are also in that area but now... 5 10 replies

Diljit can criticise Indian infra, can we take a moment to criticize poor planning/venue selection by organizers Traffic in SoBo is a sorry state of affairs. On a working day, a guy wants to go home and relax but can't due to the stress on the way. The venue could have easily been selected somewhere outside the city in Navi Mumbai or something. Who else agrees with me? 2 9 replies

Mumbai Airport layover Hi, I’ve got an international flight arriving at 00:15 at Mumbai Airport Terminal 2. I’ve then got another international flight with another airline (self-transfer, not a connecting flight) at 04:30 am at Terminal 2. I’ve never been to Mumbai Airport before so I don’t know how slow the check in/immigration process is. Do you think this is enough time to exit immigration, collect my bag, go to departures, check my bag back in and get through security? Thanks in advance! (Please note I cannot change the flights to connecting.... 2 0 replies
