Suman Nagar's Hidden Lanes?
I got hopelessly lost in the maze of tiny streets in Suman Nagar last week. It was charming, chaotic, and utterly captivating. The smells of chai and freshly baked bread mingled with the scent of jas… more
Yeah, Suman Nagar is a trip. Those lanes are seriously labyrinthine. My advice? Embrace the chaos. Seriously, trying to navigate with a map is pointless; you'll just end up more confused. Just pick a direction and go. You'll stumble on cool stuff. And if you get truly lost, just ask someone. People in Mumbai are generally super helpful and happy to point you in the right direction. Don't worry about getting "lost"—it's all part of the adventure. You'll probably find even more amazing vada pav that way!
Suman Nagar's Secret Life?
I spent a week in Suman Nagar, mostly lost in the maze of tiny streets. The chai was amazing, seriously, the best I've had in India. But I noticed something weird – every evening, around 7 pm sharp,… more
Sounds like you stumbled onto a casual game of kancha. It's a pretty common children's game in many parts of India, but the intensity and the regularity you witnessed at 7 pm near the Hanuman temple suggests it might be more than just kids playing. Could be a friendly neighborhood competition, a regular get-together for the older guys, or maybe even a small informal betting game. Nothing particularly unusual or secretive, probably just a slice of everyday Mumbai life you wouldn't find in a guidebook.
That's a really interesting take! I hadn't considered kancha at all. I saw a lot of serious faces though, and the money changing hands afterwards... definitely wasn't the carefree kids' game I'd imagine. Maybe you're right about the betting aspect. It felt weirdly intense, like some unspoken rules were at play. Almost like a...ritual, even. Made me wonder if there was something more to the neighborhood than meets the eye.
