are you ready Mumbai?

Construction for what might be the tallest and greenest skyscraper in India has begun. Standing TALL on our very own queen’s necklace this tower is surely NOT an eye sore to say the least.

Awesome!!

Do you know what the status of the 60-floor Ambani residence is?

komal said...

hi harry - long time. how has all your travelling been?

i dont know the status - maybe will find out!

where will the vada pav wala sit??

adv said...

maybe its not an eyesore because fxfowle's project in charge for this is sudhir jambhekar, whom you may remember komal, has visited jj with a presentation in 2001.

he's from jj too... your dad would certainly know him, maybe just a couple of batches junior and used to have an office at fountain once upon a time.

the vada pav will have to be bought from the 'exotic foods' section at crossroads-2, not too far away. as for the vala, the ocean may have consumed him by now, methinks...

komal said...

i dont remember him from the lecture at jj - but i remember him from principal at fxfowle. thats great though!!!

thankss for the info on the vada pav - hehe. imagine - vada paav we thought could be sold as exotic food here but it seems like its exotic food in mumbai :( - by the way didnt cross roads( the original one) shut down - i wonder how long this cross roads too is going to last :)

adv said...

it didnt shut... the piramal group sold it to another company, i think.

komal said...

pantaloons i think ? remember my mom mentioning something to me about it - and my isntant question was 'isnt phoenxi mills so close with a huge pantaloon establishment'

adv said...

its the market.

peddar road, tardeo and everything north will never go to lower parel, even if u call it upper worli.

komal said...

and everythin south u mean... thats probably true though!
