Malling in Delhi versus malling in Bangalore - Space is at a premium in Bangalore. Not so much in Delhi.
Malling in Saket- Select Citywalk- is reasonably comfortable, though the book collection in bookstores is not too inspiring.
Most foreign brands of everything you always wanted to buy- perfumes, garments, are available at a mall near you, if you are in Delhi. So now, how do the Singaporeans (or Dubaians) reposition themselves. I can go to a Delhi mall without spending the airfare to Singapore or Dubai. Ok, maybe I can still get a good deal on a 43 inch LED TV there!
Malling in Gurgaon versus malling in Delhi. It's a capital against a provincial town. But Gurgaon is the pioneer in malling.
Obviously, all these observations are born out of a recent trip to the Saket mall. One interesting thing I saw there was a simulated golf range where you can hit a ball into a screen which calculates/simulates the flight path of the ball and so on, for a fee of course! 150 bucks for 15 minutes. I did not try it.

I think the Singaporeans must begin simulated SCUBA diving in the malls to attract new traffic
Actually, we could cut a lot of the weary things out by simulating them. How about sitting in heaven sipping some nice Amrit, while we simulate our trip to the earth and watch it in slow motion?
