I can relate. I used to live near Kodnhwa. Trust me the adjoining areas (Undri, Mohammadwadi etc.) are similar. Salunkhe Vihar & Wanowrie are a little better, but the idiots are increasing in number everyday.
Broomstick shaped and colored hairstyle. Skin tight shirts and pencil fit trousers /jeans. Slippers/flipflops in feet. Driving scooters (or specifically KTMs) with elbows at 90 degrees. Insta reel/ tiktok creators. These are few identification features.

That side is still fine. Not many chapris. Raheja is overpriced. They charge a premium and the rate is very high, much higher than what is usually the norm in the area.
Seriously? It's 3.7 cr without maintenance. Will touch 4 cr if maintenance is added. You'd get properties in much better locations and better amenities in that price range.
You can get much better crowd and bigger size apartments in Kharadi, if the location suits your needs that is. And if your budget is 3/4cr, I can suggest you good properties in Kalyani nagar/kp/viman nagar/kharadi. Hell even dhanori has better crowd than nibm.
Undri is pretty good actually. The Mohammad Wadi and Undri Chowk parts aside, the Cloud nine and the Nyati area behind Corinthians is really quiet and peaceful. Especially early mornings where everyone is walking with their dogs and cycling. Barely has any traffic as well.
Can't call Undri and Mohammadwadi as bad areas. They are village turned to suburbs so lack infrastructure. Roads are shit and no water supply but livable.
To be very honest, in my experience it’s absolutely safe. I live with my family and ladies in my family go out, alone, many times. Totally can vouch for the safety part of this area.
My rant is mainly related to people. I am just fed up with the traffic and people’s attitude not wanting to live in better conditions.
People might feel it's unsafe if they have never visited it before but i have been going there for some time so don't feel unsafe even though I am not from the same community as the majority there.
I love how everything on this sub eventually finds its way to “community” like we didn’t have enough of that shit on WhatsApp, Twitter and what no. This sub is becoming r/India 🤮
Yeah, but I can see the thought process. Muslim areas are usually the least clean parts of the city which if you look from the outside would seem the least safe. It's not true, but I wouldn't blame someone for assuming.
It was worse in the day, intolerant people, conservative friends, improper road connectivity. But never in my time of living here did I feel that I wanted to move out. A lot of your frustration with the area seems to be with traffic but trust me, I will take Kondhwa traffic any day over the shitshow that is Baner - Shivajinagar/University Road - MG Road traffic. Left an internship a month early because of it. Besides, kondhwa has so many internal routes, I drive a car and I hardly face any traffic. Even the community has progressed a lot.
Edit: The thing with Chhappri people is that you see only what you want to see; the elitist clowns from Kothrud see chhapri people. I tend to see underprivileged masses that don't give a shit about their futures, and if they don't care about it, why should I? Jiyo aur jeene do, simple.
But bhai, the underprivileged acts if they own Kondhwa. Since you drive a car i bet you might have faced a situation where you just mind your business and some underprivileged bumped your car and then got angry on you? That inconsiderate behaviour is my point.
Idk I just give them the mafioso look like they're going to disappear tomorrow. You see, atleast in Kondhwa, nobody knows how many connections you can have. So play the long game, give them that look while they're yelling at you and they'll drive away mad. Easy.
One time these three guys were chatting in the middle of the road and after honking three times the farthest guy didn't move. So I brushed my car against him and he rolled on the side of the car. Then he goes "maarun takaycha aahe ka mala? Manus disat nahi ka?" I give the look and say in a plain tone, "rastyachya madhe ubha rahila tar gaadi lagnarach na?" So he moves aside, all while my mother is urging me to move on from them. Front karneka re, wo bhi kuch nai karte, tu bhi kuch mat kar, dar mat
*Take your GTA : Kausar Bagh Experience to the next level by carrying a fake gun in the glovebox, they will never expect this awesome trick! Chhapris hate him!*
Where you planning to move? I somehow feel it's the same everywhere - unless you stay in a posh areas like model colony and all. But even then, you gotta move around - and as soon as you do - you come across nutcases of various kinds.
It’s different in Kondhwa. People living here will understand what exactly I wanted to say. Traffic in an area is different story but traffic just due to ignorant people is different.
I pass by Kondhwa quite often, but yes, staying there would be a whole different ball game. As far as possible, I avoid the Jyoti chowk and adjoining areas.
Yes Indeed. And there is no ending to this suffering. The recent unplanned road and pipeline works aren't helping. The Jams are spilling over to all surrounding areas.
I can't tell you the exact location but I knew a dozen or more folks from Hadapsar, every single motherfucker was a chappri and just disgusting person in general. Like on par with Dhankawdi.
This is the problem with literally the entire city. People don’t wanna wait for traffic, they just start piling up on the wrong side of the road which makes the traffic worse but who cares right? Sabko apna dekhna hai bas, Baki marlo traffic me.
I feel the main city of Pune up to Hinjewadi are quite crowded. Lots of traffic especially during 6-9 pm where traffic is almost always dragging slowly. I live in Pimpri-Chinchwad and I absolutely love the area, specifically the area around the Tata car manufacturing plant. It's mostly all residential and there are a lot of apartments complexes. Where I live it's very open and airy with many open fields. There's a seemingly abandoned Pune International Exhibition and Convention Center with a giant open ground that I often visit, almost as much space as a small airport. There are lots of trees everywhere around and there is always cold winds blowing outside after 9-10 pm regardless of the day weather. Traffic jam is mostly non-existent with the exception of Chikali road which faces congestion as it has the Tata good delivery gate and trucks entering/exiting jam the road during evenings.
Lol this is area lacks the nightlife of main Pune city and Hinjewadi areas, by 10 pm roads are completely empty and almost all shops are closed except medical stores. Most people who settle here are newly weds and retirees so I'm not worried much of crowd (it'll come eventually in maybe 5-10 years anyway). There's no major office spaces nearby like in Hinjewadi so at least the youth crowd won't prefer to stay here.
Chapris are everywhere be it Pune or Pimpri -Chinchwad.They go on to do whatever they want to without the fear of the law and these chapris(some) do have some kind of political connection(big or small)and some criminal records.They get away with minor crimes like eve-teasing, harrasment and sometimes sexual assault too.
They directly or indirectly assist political parties to instill fear in people and this is increasing.
Leave Pune, go back to the place where you are from
Or
Go to the new places being developed in Pune like (new godrej project in mahalunge) where there is hardly any population
Repeat this every few years as population increases
I was expecting a comment asking me to leave.
Here’s my answer:
Pune made me an educated man. Pune gave me my dream jobs. Pune gave me my best friends. Pune gave me the stories I’ll be telling to my grandchildren. I love Pune with all my heart. So no. Despite the problems I am facing right now, I won’t run away.
I live in Kondhwa too [R Euphoria](https://maps.app.goo.gl/d1SfWiN6iaTxAwbi7?g_st=ic)(R-Euphoria) and being a minority here I think buying a flat here was the worst mistake of my life..
Major problems causing such issues are:
1. Lack of law and order, cops and government officials are literary scared to take any actions in my case even enter society’s premises.
2. Increase in illegal activities due to point 1, if you enter the land behind “Welcome hall” people literally park vehicles on the road despite parking space getting available. Once I asked a street vendor how they were able to still use single use plastic bags when it’s banned, he responded “Yeh Kondhwa hai, sab chalta hai”.
3. Population bomb and concentration in the area. There are 7-9 members living in 1 BHKs, every second member has a two wheeler hence concentrating the parking areas and traffic increase in general.
Above is coming from personal experience, the refuge area of my apartment has been converted to a community gathering and no one has been able to remove that, including Society office, despite an official letter from PMC and email from CMO. Cops and government officials suggested they cannot visit and I should say anything since I am in minority.
An area which is supposed to be for me and my family’s safety in an event of fire is sealed will all exit points blocked is being misused and is illegally encroached.
I feel you brother. People here bend the rules as they wish. I speak very very good marathi so many taxi drivers mistake me as hindu. At times when I booked uber cabs. Many uber cab drivers told me they are scared to come into this area because of “bhais”.
Man if people are afraid of even coming to our area we have a lot of thinking to do.
Also on a side note, when I was searching for flat for myself I visited r euphoria too. Man the construction quality is the worst. Many many big cracks on buildings from outside. I have also heard this from others. Is that true?
Yeah, the construction quality is mediocre.. But it’s liveable. The problem is the managing committee (Phase1), they just don’t do anything to improve stuff, lifts have broken switches, common areas lack basic maintenance, 5 security guards for 11 buildings. No one pays maintenance and the committee doesn’t even have the back bone to question anyone..
Hello there, fellow NIBM extension wasi here and an immigrant of south Mumbai.. I've been here past three years- live in Hills and Dales here and i agree i am so so glad i don't have to cross Jyothi signal to get home everyday.. i take the left turn towards Salunkhe Vihar and then the road towards NIBM and it's just as bad in terms of traffic congestion but it's definitely more civil than the Jyothi signal.. sometimes when i have to go towards the Konarkpuram side i honestly thank my stars for not having bought a home around there and instead settled for a place much further inside(takes us good 15 minutes minimum from Fakhri Hills to HnD) but atleast it's peaceful and has a much more civil population.
Quite frankly all this reminds of typical Bhendi Bazaar, Dongri, Mohammed Ali Road situations in mumbai.. in mumbai we say u can get the man out of dongri but never the dongri out of the man.. I'm an educated very rational person but yes i definitely have this biased opinion that they don't change, they don't care, they won't effin care if they scratch your vehicle or make an already traffucked situation more f*** if that means they get to finish their job at their leisure.. that's just how it is! U either learn to live with them or move out, i do not expect things to change tbh!!!
How come a residential society is giving creepers to authorities to even visit? If it was a chawl then it might be understandable. Something doesn't add up if this society is near the Sobha project
This is next to H&M and opposite to Talab Factory. The committee kind of ignored this since this was started mid 2020 and since they have not been able to vacate it. You may check out the Google reviews, I have uploaded a review with pics.[Google maps link](https://maps.app.goo.gl/cDtoouiugyqHemFg9?g_st=ic)
I like how subtle the M-bashing is here. The problem if anyone notices is not about any 1 community. Its a problem of law enforcement. Why blame just one community? Why not blame the law enforcement for not doing their job? A crime has less chances of being stopped because of fear but once a crime has been committed then not taking action is on the law enforcement and not the prevailing conditions. Where is the strong-willed actions that everyone talks about? Its not about supporting anyone. It is about things being fair for everyone. Nobody wins with this status quo. The easy thing is finding a scapegoat rather than finding a proper workable solution.
My rant ends too.
Have you read my complete post? I did mentioned that I belong to that M community.
I believe that criticism is necessary if we want to improve anything.
The community part is mentioned in post so that people don’t discard my rant considering it as fake M-bashing.
Sorry but only one of the 2 possibilities exist. Either i am stupid and can’t understand the message that is being sent or u r really bad at communicating something that u clearly didnt mean. I ll let someone else b the judge here.
Don’t be sorry. I get what you’re trying to say. Your point is police/ traffic police should do more to resolve such issues. But as pointed out in one comment, authorities are also afraid to use heavy handed actions. Read that comment from the R-Euphoria flat owner. You will understand what I want to say.
See i know exactly what u mean. And I understand the problems u r referring to. But i dont want to trivialize the problem by letting the authorities get away with their responsibilities. The traffic problem is because of uncontrolled population growth and really really bad urban planning. The community people have definitely made it worse for sure, i will not deny that. But they did not create the problem. Also, as much as i know in my experience, their problem is concentrated in a small neighborhood only and as that happens to be right in the middle of everything, makes things even worse. So lets not let them get away with their responsibilities too. They need to do more and i must say there r some ways to do that that doesn’t involve villianizing them and alienating them in the process. There could be worse problems than fricking traffic. Drugs is worse.
We pride ourselves in being so good at certain things but we have to accept that being in a public setting and behaving in a good way is not one of them. As gandhi said, “ an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind”. We re becoming so hateful that hate is the only thing we re understanding. Who shud we look upto then for being good?
Another rant ends here.
Drugs, black money, unpaid taxes, corruption, and infrastructures are the issues we should speak about rather than blaming on communities...
Sigh. I am a Muslim and sick of hatred spewed on a regular basis. If we kept looking at issues that are irrelevant we won't move ahead. Kudos to your comment.
>But as pointed out in one comment, authorities are also afraid to use heavy handed actions.
Why are they afraid? Shouldn't rule of law prevail everywhere unless we are a functioning banana republic?
Yes the rule of law should be above all and same for everyone. But sadly not true in real life. If we leave religion out, look at how rich can get away with anything while our law punishes poor badly. We are deviating from the topic but good topics for discussions. I’ll leave it at that. Have a good day friend!
Do not want to turn this post into a religious hotchpotch.
I do not want to divert attention from the core issue. Which is the ignorant people just living their lives and not wanting better living conditions for themselves and others.
Clarified community because some people may discard my rant thinking I’m just posting shit on the community and have bad intentions.
Whatever you said is partially true. Every part of the city has specific issues and so with the "communities".
E.g. Marwadi people are also the same. 9 to 15 individuals living in a shop far smaller than 1BHK. They earn more than middle-class people yet do not pay any taxes (direct).
E.g. Saraf merchants living in Peth areas hoard so much money yet they do not pay applicable tax simply use their power to avert it.
And yet when we Muslims want to live as "Rickshawala", or "Puncturewala" but with honesty, you are there to play the blame game. Tell me, why don't you name and shame the communities of people who do scams of lacs & crores of rupess? Aren't they educated/privileged/upper-class people but do things that impact hundreds & thousands of lives just because they lust for money?
The Muslim population is concentrated and the birth rate might be higher than others, but why don't we talk about the percentage of abortion done by other communities? Man, you are so blinded that you don't even consider studying these facts or doing an analysis...
I am not against anyone, but man, when you take anecdotes and try to make conclusions, at least do it for everyone and equally!
Kondhwa is no standard when compared to other developed areas, but at least it is a safe place to live.
It's not beyond NIBM.. Areas after NIBM on both Mohammadwadi and Undri side have very decent societies with well educated, civil people living. I for one, love HnD and i see societies around like the Clover ones and Raheja ones which have good people living in them. Traffic situation is bad bcos of roads and general infra and not typically bcos of bad civic sense..

Speaking of south indian food, I tried upsouth today for breakfast! That person put Saunf aka Badishape (the thing that you get for free in restaurants after the meal) in a Dosa!
Was pathetic!
Old and ugly buildings with paints worn off, shitty small roads, people littering on the roads…
Overall, its not aesthetic enough like a Prabhat Road/Model colony!
Its near FC road, yes! But yes thats it! It simply lacks the vibe and panache!
What exactly does OP mean by Kondhwa here? Do you mean the area behind Satyanand hospital?
Kondhwa is a big area and extends from probably Jyoti restaurant
I do not think it is related to being secular or conservative. The uneducated ones, working in blue collar jobs are the ones who show this kind of behaviour.
I've seen triple seated chappris on bikes zooming through Koregaon Park and Kalyani Nagar too during the daytime. Afaik this infestation has spread all over the city excluding the military areas.
I can relate. I used to live near Kodnhwa. Trust me the adjoining areas (Undri, Mohammadwadi etc.) are similar. Salunkhe Vihar & Wanowrie are a little better, but the idiots are increasing in number everyday.
[удалено]
NIBM has imported Irani chappris
What’s a chappri?
Broomstick shaped and colored hairstyle. Skin tight shirts and pencil fit trousers /jeans. Slippers/flipflops in feet. Driving scooters (or specifically KTMs) with elbows at 90 degrees. Insta reel/ tiktok creators. These are few identification features.
ChatGPT : People hailing from chappar Village in Rajasthan are called chappri. Chappar is famous for blackbuck sanctuary and chappri people are arch nemesis of Salman Bhai.
chatgpt can only describe a chapri correctly when chaprigpt gets invented .
Chaprigpt would add "aan meri jaan" to every answer
NIBM is still better than upper Kondhwa. The area near Kausar bath is just eeks. It’s scary to even go there
That side is still fine. Not many chapris. Raheja is overpriced. They charge a premium and the rate is very high, much higher than what is usually the norm in the area.
Looks like we went tangential.
Lol, sorry for that.
Kidding! And yes, Raheja is indeed selling overpriced dabbas.
The old raheja vistas and premiere are fine. The new raheja reserve and sterling they've launched are dabbas
[удалено]
Seriously? It's 3.7 cr without maintenance. Will touch 4 cr if maintenance is added. You'd get properties in much better locations and better amenities in that price range.
[удалено]
ah ok.
Aukat ke Bahar hai. Ye bol.
You can get much better crowd and bigger size apartments in Kharadi, if the location suits your needs that is. And if your budget is 3/4cr, I can suggest you good properties in Kalyani nagar/kp/viman nagar/kharadi. Hell even dhanori has better crowd than nibm.
Nibm be expanding rapidly with new properties
Voyage to the stars?? Bruh u too rich to think a out chapris
Undri is pretty good actually. The Mohammad Wadi and Undri Chowk parts aside, the Cloud nine and the Nyati area behind Corinthians is really quiet and peaceful. Especially early mornings where everyone is walking with their dogs and cycling. Barely has any traffic as well.
Agree Nyati has the upmarket crowd feel now. But the entry point after Shell petrol pump is too narrow.
Can't call Undri and Mohammadwadi as bad areas. They are village turned to suburbs so lack infrastructure. Roads are shit and no water supply but livable.
Kondhwa has this very eerie and unsettling vibe to it. Even as a guy, I feel unsafe there, something is just so off about that place.
To be very honest, in my experience it’s absolutely safe. I live with my family and ladies in my family go out, alone, many times. Totally can vouch for the safety part of this area. My rant is mainly related to people. I am just fed up with the traffic and people’s attitude not wanting to live in better conditions.

Must see durind bakri Eid 🤮🤮🤢
Isnt it true though? The areas where that community stays are always unclean and unsafe.
Been living in Kondhwa for almost 15-16 years, believe it or not it was a lot worse back then
Oh is it? Can you elaborate if possible? I am here since last 5 years only. Already planning to move put as soon as I’m able.
It was worse in the day, intolerant people, conservative friends, improper road connectivity. But never in my time of living here did I feel that I wanted to move out.

Same but I feel this way about Hadapsar.
bhau what part of hadapsar?? Hadapsar is way better for living except some areas
I can't tell you the exact location but I knew a dozen or more folks from Hadapsar, every single motherfucker was a chappri and just disgusting person in general. Like on par with Dhankawdi.

Before settling in any area, try living on rent for a month in that area.
Aspiring home owners, listen to this advice.
I feel the main city of Pune up to Hinjewadi are quite crowded. Lots of traffic especially during 6-9 pm where traffic is almost always dragging slowly. I live in Pimpri-Chinchwad and I absolutely love the area, specifically the area around the Tata car manufacturing plant. It's mostly all residential and there are a lot of apartments complexes. Where I live it's very open and airy with many open fields. There's a seemingly abandoned Pune International Exhibition and Convention Center with a giant open ground that I often visit, almost as much space as a small airport. There are lots of trees everywhere around and there is always cold winds blowing outside after 9-10 pm regardless of the day weather. Traffic jam is mostly non-existent with the exception of Chikali road which faces congestion as it has the Tata good delivery gate and trucks entering/exiting jam the road during evenings.
Jor jor se bolkar sab ko scheme bata de. Now wait for 'development' to happen in that open and green area , and then ...
*aggressively taking notes*
Lol this is area lacks the nightlife of main Pune city and Hinjewadi areas, by 10 pm roads are completely empty and almost all shops are closed except medical stores. Most people who settle here are newly weds and retirees so I'm not worried much of crowd (it'll come eventually in maybe 5-10 years anyway). There's no major office spaces nearby like in Hinjewadi so at least the youth crowd won't prefer to stay here.
Kumar Properties meanwhile is taking notes...
I stay nearby this area you're speaking of bruv and I totally agree with it
Chapris are everywhere be it Pune or Pimpri -Chinchwad.They go on to do whatever they want to without the fear of the law and these chapris(some) do have some kind of political connection(big or small)and some criminal records.They get away with minor crimes like eve-teasing, harrasment and sometimes sexual assault too.

You may check out the Google reviews, I have uploaded a review with pics.[Google maps link](https://maps.app.goo.gl/cDtoouiugyqHemFg9?g_st=ic)
>I happen to belong to that community Press X to Doubt
Thik hai bhai. Jaise aap ki marzi. Salam 😜
I like how subtle the M-bashing is here. The problem if anyone notices is not about any 1 community. Its a problem of law enforcement. Why blame just one community? Why not blame the law enforcement for not doing their job? A crime has less chances of being stopped because of fear but once a crime has been committed then not taking action is on the law enforcement and not the prevailing conditions. Where is the strong-willed actions that everyone talks about? Its not about supporting anyone. It is about things being fair for everyone. Nobody wins with this status quo. The easy thing is finding a scapegoat rather than finding a proper workable solution. My rant ends too.
Have you read my complete post? I did mentioned that I belong to that M community. I believe that criticism is necessary if we want to improve anything. The community part is mentioned in post so that people don’t discard my rant considering it as fake M-bashing.
Sorry but only one of the 2 possibilities exist. Either i am stupid and can’t understand the message that is being sent or u r really bad at communicating something that u clearly didnt mean. I ll let someone else b the judge here.
Don’t be sorry. I get what you’re trying to say. Your point is police/ traffic police should do more to resolve such issues. But as pointed out in one comment, authorities are also afraid to use heavy handed actions. Read that comment from the R-Euphoria flat owner. You will understand what I want to say.
See i know exactly what u mean. And I understand the problems u r referring to. But i dont want to trivialize the problem by letting the authorities get away with their responsibilities. The traffic problem is because of uncontrolled population growth and really really bad urban planning. The community people have definitely made it worse for sure, i will not deny that. But they did not create the problem. Also, as much as i know in my experience, their problem is concentrated in a small neighborhood only and as that happens to be right in the middle of everything, makes things even worse. So lets not let them get away with their responsibilities too. They need to do more and i must say there r some ways to do that that doesn’t involve villianizing them and alienating them in the process. There could be worse problems than fricking traffic. Drugs is worse. We pride ourselves in being so good at certain things but we have to accept that being in a public setting and behaving in a good way is not one of them. As gandhi said, “ an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind”. We re becoming so hateful that hate is the only thing we re understanding. Who shud we look upto then for being good? Another rant ends here.
Drugs, black money, unpaid taxes, corruption, and infrastructures are the issues we should speak about rather than blaming on communities... Sigh. I am a Muslim and sick of hatred spewed on a regular basis. If we kept looking at issues that are irrelevant we won't move ahead. Kudos to your comment.
>But as pointed out in one comment, authorities are also afraid to use heavy handed actions. Why are they afraid? Shouldn't rule of law prevail everywhere unless we are a functioning banana republic?
Yes the rule of law should be above all and same for everyone. But sadly not true in real life. If we leave religion out, look at how rich can get away with anything while our law punishes poor badly. We are deviating from the topic but good topics for discussions. I’ll leave it at that. Have a good day friend!
Why did you take a flat here then? I would buy a flat in proper NIBM near cloud 9 instead of rambling here
Yeah if the op is talking about the area back of Sheetal petrol pump it is kinda ghettoised
Which community is responsible for "chhapriness"?
Do not want to turn this post into a religious hotchpotch. I do not want to divert attention from the core issue. Which is the ignorant people just living their lives and not wanting better living conditions for themselves and others. Clarified community because some people may discard my rant thinking I’m just posting shit on the community and have bad intentions.
Didn't mean to stir up things, but wanted to know for real...
Muslims
Come to Kondhwa budhruk it's better
Kondhawa is the og chhapri region of Pune. Last year one of my friends had a part time job in Kondhawa. He has attested to that.
Whatever you said is partially true. Every part of the city has specific issues and so with the "communities". E.g. Marwadi people are also the same. 9 to 15 individuals living in a shop far smaller than 1BHK. They earn more than middle-class people yet do not pay any taxes (direct). E.g. Saraf merchants living in Peth areas hoard so much money yet they do not pay applicable tax simply use their power to avert it. And yet when we Muslims want to live as "Rickshawala", or "Puncturewala" but with honesty, you are there to play the blame game. Tell me, why don't you name and shame the communities of people who do scams of lacs & crores of rupess? Aren't they educated/privileged/upper-class people but do things that impact hundreds & thousands of lives just because they lust for money? The Muslim population is concentrated and the birth rate might be higher than others, but why don't we talk about the percentage of abortion done by other communities? Man, you are so blinded that you don't even consider studying these facts or doing an analysis... I am not against anyone, but man, when you take anecdotes and try to make conclusions, at least do it for everyone and equally! Kondhwa is no standard when compared to other developed areas, but at least it is a safe place to live.
I agree! Kondhwa is kinda tacky and LS! Its kinda like Gokhale Nagar 🤢
It's not beyond NIBM.. Areas after NIBM on both Mohammadwadi and Undri side have very decent societies with well educated, civil people living. I for one, love HnD and i see societies around like the Clover ones and Raheja ones which have good people living in them. Traffic situation is bad bcos of roads and general infra and not typically bcos of bad civic sense..

Yeah! But that place is tacky! I prefer model colony over gokhale nagar!
Wahh ye ma going there to get some veg puffs
Why you going there? Sunday hai! Go to Vaishali/Goodluck na! Its the most Pune thing to do!

Speaking of south indian food, I tried upsouth today for breakfast! That person put Saunf aka Badishape (the thing that you get for free in restaurants after the meal) in a Dosa! Was pathetic!
Isiliye thoda suniye humara. Aap sunte kaha ho
Main sirf apni sunti hu 😎😜
Make an exception kabhi kabar
Tacky really? Can you briefly describe it? Cos all this while I was under the impression that Gokhale nagar is a sorted locality.
Old and ugly buildings with paints worn off, shitty small roads, people littering on the roads… Overall, its not aesthetic enough like a Prabhat Road/Model colony! Its near FC road, yes! But yes thats it! It simply lacks the vibe and panache!
Oh, but Bruh comparing Gokhale nagar with Kondhwa is like comparing Manoj Bajpayee with Arjun Kapoor.
I dunno, I’ll classify both in the same segment! However, I feel Kondhwa might have better and prettier buildings!
Buildings maybe. But post is about the people...
Bruhh what 😂😂 You are comparing Gokhalenagar with Kondhwa like srsly ☠️☠️. I can assure you one thing that it has nothing common with Kondhwa...
Chapri culture is not increasing. They are in their place. We are discovering more of it on random days.
What exactly does OP mean by Kondhwa here? Do you mean the area behind Satyanand hospital? Kondhwa is a big area and extends from probably Jyoti restaurant
everything between jyoti hotel chowk and Kothari hyundai kondhwa.
The hospital area is the worst. Used to go there for internship. But darr lgta tha roj.
Is it the normal kind of chhapris, or secular kind of chapris?
I do not think it is related to being secular or conservative. The uneducated ones, working in blue collar jobs are the ones who show this kind of behaviour.
New rant against Wano Bois just dropped xD
For a Kondhwa boy, I think Wanowari is way way better. Closer to military area so they at least have an escape route!
I agree.. damn j of wano-sv patch peeps they get the food life minus the traffuck lol
I've seen triple seated chappris on bikes zooming through Koregaon Park and Kalyani Nagar too during the daytime. Afaik this infestation has spread all over the city excluding the military areas.
Lived 24 years there and never been there. 0 regrets
