West Bengaluru beckons

With spiralling congestion in Bengaluru spilling over onto our overflowing roads, the focus needs to shift to other areas of the city.

West Bangalore may just be this space. Consisting of Mysore Road, Tumkur Road, Kengeri, Doddabele and more, West Bangalore is metamorphosing into a much sought-after destination for residential as well as commercial purposes.

This is thanks mainly to its practical connectivity through its excellent network of roads like NICE Ring Road, Tumkur Road, Magadi Road and a stretch of Bellary Road – which in turn connect the West to South Bangalore, East’s Electronic City, the CBD (Central Business District), as also the airport in the North.

Namma Metro’s Green Line too offers direct connectivity along Tumkur Road to the CBD and the transport hub Majestic, while the Purple Line run from East to West – giving West residents easy access to the rest of Bangalore.

By 2025, once the Nelamangala–Baiyappanahalli suburban railway corridor is completed, West Bengaluru will be the hot-in-demand region.

GETTING AROUND TOWN

Tour operators, forex, visa assistance, helplines...

Bengaluru

is a traveller’s delight. It starts with the air conditioned Volvo buses and the pre-paid taxi counter at the airport. Not to mention, the pre-paid auto counters at the city’s railway stations. But the finest example is the ease with which you can navigate the central business district of MG Road and around with the Big 10 buses. You can hop on and hop off at any point after your shopping expedition. But the finest experience will be the first reach of the Namma Metro train running from Old Madras Road to MG Road. Happy travels.

GETS ITS OWN LOGO

Bengaluru has become the first Indian city to have its own logo, joining the club of global metros like New York, Paris and Berlin. The logo was unveiled recently, with letters BE and U highlighted, reflecting the city’s ethos where everyone gets a chance to be oneself.

The new Bengaluru logo will establish Brand Bengaluru on the global tourism map.

ETHNIC VIBRANCE

Dress up fashionably for all occasions with the most stylish ethnic wear from Asma

By Jeelani MN

Launched in 2005 at Malleshwaram, Asma has grown by leaps and bounds in the retail apparel business. They have branched out at Jayanagar, and recently opened up an outlet at Commercial Street as well.

Asma Founders, brothers Adarsh Gupta and Nischal Gupta have been creating quite a buzz with their Commercial Street store. Says Adarsh, “The demand for women’s wear was tremendous, as not many stores were selling lehengas and dress materials, and no store was dedicated exclusively to Indian women’s wear. We saw an opportunity as Gupta’s Textile Annexe (the parent company) has been in the men’s apparel business since 1964, and we wanted to set up women’s wear under a new brand name.”

The South Indian market has always had a predominant focus on their saree stores, leaving only a small space for dress materials, salwar suits, and lehengas, which made it difficult for regulars in the market.

Adarsh elaborates, “We did not want to get into the over-crowded saree business space. We felt that getting into ethnic wear, salwar suits, lehengas, and dress materials area would create the much needed change.”

The passion and compassion that has gone into building this business exude in every garment the store showcases. Further, catering to customers personally with a well-trained staff sets a very relaxing tone to shopping at Asma. Families shopping for

weddings, or any other occasions feel a sense of ease with the selection the store offers. It is a hands-on family-run business, helmed by Punith Gupta, father of Adarsh and Nischal, their mother Uma Gupta running the Malleshwaram store, and Adarsh’s wife Neha Gupta managing the Jayanagar store. This drive and passion to cater to the customers are seen in every family member and make up the secret to their soaring success in a short time.

Asma is making great headway in the market with their trendy outfits, one on one involvement, customising bridal or ethnic wear according to the budget, and also making their customers happy with good pricing.

All their efforts are to place Asma as the preferred choice in the market by offering multiple ranges to select from, which helps their customers choose the best from the lot without having to worry about the price factor.

Asma on Commercial Street is catering to bridal wear since it opened, and they have become the most visited store in the shortest time on this busy shopper’s haven of Bangalore.

The lehenga prices start at Rs 5000 and go up to Rs 4 lakh. Their loyal customers choose to shop at the Commercial Street branch for bridal wear with their best designs and competitive pricing.

Trends keep changing, and with Ramadan just around the corner, Adarsh explains, “Fashion changes every Ramadan and we keep up, as customers ask what the trend is and prefer to buy “what’s in trend”. Currently it’s florals, pastel shades, and gowns that are trending. This Ramzan we have to see what new trend will arise. We also cater to office wear, casual wear, ethnic wear. Everyone wants fresh colours, and everything is available here as this is a onestop shop, and we guarantee to be the best value-for-money in the market.”

Asma means high status or supreme, which connects with every woman, and Asma stores with their vast beautiful, fashionable collection are helping style every woman reach that high status.

SIGHTS, HIGHLIGHTS, LANDMARKS

Parks, landmarks, places of religious interest...

WithBengaluru, the sobriquets keep getting added up. From Air Conditioned City to Aviation Capital to Garden City, this small town turned technopolis has added a new word to the American lexicon: ‘Bangalored’. It means ‘to lose one’s job’ as a result of off shoring work to India. That’s not all. The city is emerging as a medical tourism hub in India by offering ‘First World Service at Third World Cost’. What’s more, the best and the brightest multinationals are spicing up the retail scene by test-marketing large format stores like Reebok, Levi’s, Adidas, Esprit and Nautica. It’s become a ‘yuppie heaven’. Now that’s yet another sobriquet for the city. With the Metro Rail opening in phases, things are getting better by the day. Visit the city and be bowled over.

HIT THE HIGH NOTES

Pubs, clubs, lounge bars...

The city is famous for its bars and pubs. It’s called the Beer Capital of India. With good reason. But the best reason to pub hop?

It’s cosmopolitan crowd and the niche pubs that serve a select clientele. There are lounge spaces for the ladies, retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Not to mention, resto-bars, sports bars, roof-top bars, hookah bars, dance bars and cigar lounges for the casual and adventurous. Not to mention, the city’s first wine boutique pub. Reason enough to rewind, reboot and restart.

•Alcohol may not be served at some of these places, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm.

WEIGHT LOSS & YOU

Find holistic healing and weight management through physiotherapy at Perfect Bounce

By Smiti Jain Narayan

A persistent myth about physiotherapy is that it can only help in troubles like physical injury, stiff neck or leg pain. However, physiotherapy can actually heal you holistically and even manage weight loss. Yes, you read that right – physiotherapy can play a vital role in weight management.

Introducing Hi-Lipo Detox, Cavitation and Contour – advanced stand-alone slimming device for body contouring, anti-aging and stress relief. The device uses revolutionary technologies to rejuvenate complete body, mind and soul. It is a non-surgical device that effectively helps body shaping and mind relaxation.

• Hi-Lipo Detox

Deep Heat and Vacuum Therapy Combo

Detoxification through the combination of vacuum and heat therapy burns fat and removes toxins. Hi-Lipo Detox combo, with a smart, sturdy, lightweight ABS constructed body, is one of the most advanced and convenient infra-red deep heat therapy and vacuum therapy system.

Deep Heat Therapy

Deep Heat therapy can create heat 2 inches or more below the skin surface by 60ºC, increasing the inter molecular temperature of fat cells which further results in breakdown of the bindings between tissues and muscles, resulting in loosening of fat cells to facilitate slimming.

Vacuum Therapy

Vacuum simulates the manual cupping movement of massage which helps to mobilise and break down the excessive, accumulated stubborn adipose tissues. It improves body metabolism and increases blood supply, when combined with heat therapy it removes toxins and waste materials through lymphatic drainage.

• Hi-Lipo Cavi

40 KHz Ultrasonic Cavitation Therapy for Cellulite Reduction

Hi-Lipo Cavi is one of the most advance and efficient systems using low-frequency 40 KHz ultrasound for easy, painless and nonsurgical reduction of localised subcutaneous unwanted fat from the problem areas and treatment of cellulite.

Hi-Lipo Cavi works by selectively targeting unwanted fat cells in specific problem areas in the adipose tissue.

The treatment lasts about 30 minutes, it is totally painless and with no known side effects. In most cases the result can be seen immediately and depending on individual clients, most will need between 3-7 treatments with intervals of 7-10 days. Hi-Lipo Cavi is the true alternative to surgical liposuction.

• Hi-Lipo Contour

Advance way to inch loss and muscle rehabilitation

Hi-Lipo Contour uses bio-electrical stimulation to strengthen and tone the muscles and promote endurance. Hi-Lipo Contour can bring you sustainable inch loss, increased muscle definition, better posture and balance. It mimics the body’s natural bio-electricity to work out muscles in a much more safe and effective manner than a traditional workout.

FDA-cleared Hi-Lipo Contour exercises the muscles around the problem areas in a very powerful way, while you are lying down on a massage table. Hi-Lipo Contour’s treatments when combined with a diet plan and detox session, bring fast and long-lasting results.

The therapists at Perfect Bounce possess stringent training and expertise to help you heal fully and assist you in your weight loss journey most effectively.
