Sharing rare views of Nariman Point & Marine Drive clicked from Oberoi Sheraton in January 1978.

I had to do a double take on the first photo, no parapet wall! It seems it was still under construction then.

Also sharing two zoomed-in frames, notice the clear blue hues of the water. The parapet wall those days existed only till the Air India building and was extended later.

Bombay never got old, she just changed her spots !!

1 ) *Cafe New Yorker* at Girgaum Chowpatty just shut down .
The first Pizza and Sizzler were available here.

2 ) *Jimmy Boy* at Fort serving Parsi cuisine was pulled down.

3) *Kamling* remains in the Grand Parent's talk about the delicious Chinese food.

4) *Rhythm House* stored vinyl records and tapes of Music.
Sunil Gavaskar was looking for some good Musical records here. A record slipped from his hands and it broke. Next day the news paper reported ,' Gavaskar breaks an another record.'

5 ) *Slip Disc* was a Popular Disco near Regal Cinema. This place is replaced by Jaferbhai 's Delhi Darbar.

6) *Samovar* the artistic restaurant in Jahangir Art Gallery was famous for it's samosa and chai.Young artists in Guru shirts with colorfull cotton Jholas used to hang around here.

7) *Kemps Corner* was actually a Pharmacy shop. They used to dispense medicines as prescribed by a Physician. This was before the era of the patent medicine.Kemp's lotion was sold to treat skin infection. Now the area is called Kemps Corner.

9) *Single Screen Cinema Theaters* have vanished. still remember the thrill of watching 'Mackenna's Gold' & " Can Can "in Strand & Sholay At Minerva.

10) Initially 'Sholay' had a poor opening at Minerva. Ramesh Sippy went to the manager and asked,' kitney aadmi the ?' Then the movie picked up pace because of the dialogues,and music were available on cassettes.

11) *Lamington Road* boasted of Glorious Single Screen Cinemas where Sunday Morning Shows Were Screened
Lamington; Imperial, Naaz, Swastik, Minerva ; Super.
all gone now.
And *Also Rex* ; Defence , Diana, Derby ; Ganga; Jamuna ; Satyam ; Sachinam Etc.

12) *Naaz Restaurant* was on the top of the Malabar Hill. A view of the Queen's Necklace ( Marine Drive) from there was awesome.
It was in the midst of the greens of The Hanging Gardens.
Many A Boy Meets Girl Episodes Happened At This Scenic Spot.

13) *Yankee Doodle* The Famous Ice Cream Joint
Serving Delicious Rum & Raisin Scoops On Marine Drive Vanished.

14) *Farmer Brothers At Dadar* --The Cozy Joint Serving Milk Products & Delicious Snacks Closed .

15) *Grant Road* Had Great Irani Restaurants Where Delicious Food At Economical Rates Was Served.
A--1 ; Coronation ; Oriental Etc All Shut.
The Last Surviving Is B.Merwan which alas may down shutters too .

16) Another iconic landmark of *'Dukes' bottle* at Govandi, now replaced by DMart.

17) And of course Bombay's first juke box introduced by *Leopold restaurant*, which was frequented by youngsters and foreigners for draft beer.

As Lord Alfred Tennysons says ' Ring out the Old, Ring in the New' .

So Bombay writes a new story of the coastal Roads, Sea links, Worli promenades, Metro Trains, Bullet train, Penguins and of course...
*The Pot Holes.*

Whatever Happens
*"Ye Hai Bombay Meri Jaan"* Will Thrive Forever ❤️ @mumbaiheritage

[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

Last night, Pakistani launched missile and drone attacks on multiple Indian cities, including Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, and Bhuj.

Imagine an attack on this scale, yet our common citizens didn’t even realise it happened. Why? Because unlike Pakistan, we have a functional defence system that shot down everything they launched. And today, we retaliated, with precision. They couldn’t intercept a thing.

We don’t appreciate and thank our Armed Forces’ capabilities enough!

[Rishi Sunak @RishiSunak]

No nation should have to accept terrorist attacks being launched against it from land controlled by another country.

India is justified in striking terrorist infrastructure. There can be no impunity for terrorists.

Indira Gandhi had two sons

One was interested in governance but died while flying

The other one was interested in flying
but died while in governance

She has two daughters-in law

One is interested in rearing
monkeys
but she became minister

The other one is interested to become Prime Minister
but she is rearing a monkey
