My first week moving from Mumbai to Bangalore, here's what I noticed:
1. Bangalore can be a lonely city. Most people have left home to build a career here. That's why house parties, board game nights, screenings, running clubs, and dating apps are everywhere.
Find a few people with good intentions and keep them close. STAY AWAY from transactional people.
2. This city is obsessed with building. I've met 15+ founders in one week, attended 3 networking events, and almost every conversation eventually becomes about how to solve a problem with tech.
3. Bangalore taught me to think bigger. I met someone who had just crossed $500 MRR and was preparing to raise at a $20M valuation. The math didn't make sense at first, until I realized startups are also about storytelling, timing, and finding the one investor who believes in your vision.
4. The weather deserves every bit of the hype. Coming from Mumbai, I genuinely forgot what sweating feels like. For a metropolitan city, I don't think any place in India comes close.
5. Plan your commute before you plan your outfit. I book my cab before I even start getting ready. That's the only way I have a chance of reaching on time.
6. The food surprised me. Healthier, less oily, and many restaurants proudly show their kitchens and hygiene standards. It genuinely feels like people care about the quality of what they serve.
7. This is the first city where people exchanged Twitter handles before LinkedIn. People care more about what you're building, thinking, and shipping than what's written on your rรฉsumรฉ.
Overall, Bangalore isn't perfect. The traffic will test your patience every day. But if you're ambitious and willing to put yourself out there, it's one of the most energizing cities you can be in.

Matching the legacy of Dhurandhar 1 was always going to be tough, but @AdityaDharFilms delivers yet again with Dhurandhar 2.
This time, itโs all about @RanveerOfficial and he absolutely owns it.
From action to intense emotional moments, heโs in top form.
4 hours long, yet never exhausting.
The film keeps you hooked from start to finish without a single dull moment.
Only downside? The Dawood Ibrahim portion feels poorly handled, both in casting and writing.
4/5 โญ
A big screen experience thatโs worth every minute!
History repeats itself! ๐ฎ๐ณ

Is it just me or sometimes it feels like 2019 was the last โnormalโ year and everything after that is some alternate timeline glitch. The energy shifted, people changed, time moves weird now.
