New to Mumbai – Best way to commute from (Bhandup East ) Bhandupeshwar Mahadev Temple to Supreme Business Park, Powai

​

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Mumbai and will soon be xyz, Supreme Business Park, Powai.

I'll be staying near Bhandupeshwar Mahadev Temple (Bhandup East). Since I don't own a scooter or bike, What's the best way to commute to the office during peak hours?

* Should I take a BEST bus, Uber/Rapido, or combine train + auto?

* How much time does each option usually take during morning rush hour?

* Which option is the most reliable and cost-effective for daily travel?

Any specific bus numbers or routes would be really helpful.

A mother and her kitten's need a shelter.

Backstory:

During the monsoon a young stray mother cat chose space near my home as a safe place to give birth to her six little kittens. Since the day they were born, I've been doing my best to keep them safe, fed, and sheltered despite having very limited space and resources. Their mother has slowly started leaving them for longer periods as they grow, and they're now reaching the age where they need homes of their own.

They have spent their first weeks of life in a cramped, damp corner during the monsoon. Which is now destroyed.I wish I could keep them until everything is perfect, but I simply cannot provide the space, veterinary care, and long-term life they deserve. Abandoning them is not an option, which is why I'm trying to find them loving families instead.

They aren't just stray kittens. They've survived a difficult start to life and deserve the chance to grow up in a safe home where they'll be loved, cared for, and never have to struggle for food or shelter again.

If you've ever thought about adopting a kitten, please consider giving one of these girls a forever home. One adoption can completely change a life.❤️🐾

Reach out to me if you feel like you can adopt.

Shapoorji Vicinia worth it? Thinking of renting a flat.

I am somewhat liking a flat there and close to finalising.

Can someone who stays there give feedback about the society and locality?

Any red flags?

Update for those who are also looking for a flat in Vicinia.

I asked about the following:

  1. Connectivity and availability of app based autos/cabs : No red flags. All round availability.
  2. Nearby shops for groceries/veggies etc: Vegetable and fruit vendors come twice a week. Nahar and DMart are within 5 mins distance in auto.
  3. Water availability: No issues. Some flats may have smelly water so check that out.
  4. Stray dogs and rats: Stray dogs is a sensitive topic but situation is much better. Rats issue is solved.
  5. Noise issues: Depends on the wing. SRA facing side + floor are factors.
  6. Any other red flags: None as per the 3 kind individuals here who spoke to me.

Tried Fishing at Powai Lake Today

Today I went to Powai Lake just to relax and ended up joining a group that was fishing.

Started as a random chat, turned into a fun little lesson , definitely not on my Mumbai bingo card.
Made me realize we can probably build or find so many cool hobby groups around that most of us don’t even know about.

Looking to meet new people or groups who like trying new stuff—cycling, pickleball, photography walks, birding, board games, trekking, fishing, anything really.

If you’re into any of this or know a group, would love to connect and try something different on weekends

Lake view plus river view for Powai’s buildings

What sky level iq move was to concretise everything, then Not have any low level dividers which would allow pedestrians to cross peacefully and to demolish these dividers in the monsoon to flood both sides of the road

Good Vada Pav Spots in Powai / Nahar Amrit Shakti area

I'm looking for Marathi style Vada Pav (not something you get in restaurants or Sweets shop).

It is something normally on corners of street. There is one by D-Mart Nahar but they have not been open last 2 times I visited - most likely it's raining hard.

Give me suggestions if you know any good vada pav places, thank you!

Does it look like a rental housing scam?

I am new in mumbai and i have taken a flat on rent with 37000 per month rent and 1 lac deposit. Owner lives in Dubai and made another local person power of attorney. The broker asked me to pay 43000 annual maintenance charge to society and mentioned it will be adjusted in my deposit. So, I paid to society trusting him. Now he also did some repair work in the flat and asked me to pay him 8000 and the same would be adjusted in first month rent as owner is out of india so it is more convenient. I paid 8000 as well. Do you think this is okay? I am worried if I dont get scammed
