I wonder what happened to #Uber in #Bangalore. It was way more reliable than other ride-hailing apps, but the last few experiences have been very bad. Unavailability of cabs, repeated cancellations, prompting for a “tip” to “increase” the chances of a ride getting accepted, unrealistic prices. Surprisingly, #Ola has been more reliable in this time and that says a lot.

The bar at the Karnataka Golf Association in Bangalore. 2023.

I hate golfing. It's typically really hot and boring and my hand to eye coordination is awful. On the other hand, I'm pretty adept at eating and drinking so the KGA more than satisfies my needs. Sidebar, there is one annoying thing about this place (besides having a dress code) and that is they have several menus and each has a dedicated team of waiters, so you need to hail specific waiters to order from specific menus. It works in the end because most people like to lounge out over the course of a Sunday afternoon, but this is not the spot for a quick anything!

The namaskara spike, as explained by Mahesh Shantaram(thecontrarian.in)😂

(Apologies, I got the name mixed up. Fixed now)

People buying day passes do so on the spot, people buying 3 day passes do so 2-3 days ahead of time and so on for 5 day passes as well

This makes a greeting symbol which is also used for offering prayers (🙏)

(Namaskara in Kannada = namaste in Hindi = namaskaram in Telugu and Malyalam, or so my friend tells me)

This is months of Mahesh scraping the official website for data and analytics. He showed multiple predictions like how Namma Metro's data is likely updated manually, seeing the Holiday pattern.

PVR Cinema, Bangalore. 2023. I was so mind blown by how beautiful this theater is. This is the theater lounge, which has counters serving various cuisines (Including dim sum, which I was able to order from my chair inside the theater!). The last time I was here, they were getting ready to also open a bar so perhaps cocktails might be something on the menu next time.
