Glad you liked it :).

Yes, will be making a vlog of Janpath soon. Thanks for the suggestion:).

Thank you.

Some are pirated, others are second hand original books. One can decide what one wants to buy :).

Glad you enjoyed it :).

See it again, the sound is there. I checked.

Yes، It's there۔ Thanks

Thank you 😊.

Glad to see your feedback. Thank you😊.

I am glad you found it interesting:).

Glad it brought back fine memories.

Oh yes TGIF was a landmark. And I remember UCB too. And Nirulas. Those memories. There was music land too.

Glad you liked it:).

Yes you can.

Yes, totally agree, Nicobar is overpriced and over rated. State emporiums are anyday better.

Nappa dori is also over priced and over rated. Apart from travel luggage and clothing, they have Cafe Dori, which gets them the footfalls and visibility on social media.

@ExperienceDelhi oh, I didn't know about the cafe...but have always seen the brands aggressive marketing campaign in magazines since probably a decade...

Actually, book shops in Delhi, especially the ones in South Delhi and Khan market are doing quite well. They are better stocked ( aa compared to pre Covid times) and seem to be selling more than before. Though I agree, OTT is making people spend more time in front of screens. Thankfully I watch very little of the content on Netflix or other platforms.

@@ExperienceDelhi ebook readers also played their part I guess. Although I'm seeing this counter culture of sorts of people now buying personal copies of books and also film DVDs and music just to "own" them as opposed to "rent" via multiple streaming services where if you don't pay you can no longer watch or read.

@samk6051 yes ebooks and Kindle also play a part. As do audiobooks. Also people love buying physical copy of a book after reading it on Kindle. All this is fueling book buying. Though increasing book prices are a kill joy.

@@ExperienceDelhi agree...I am shocked at the prices of second hand books in my city... Atleast in bigger cities like delhi second hand book markets are held regularly and still affordable..

@@samk6051 In Delhi, Sunday book bazaar is a boon. Very affordable books. Also there are many local second hand book stalls across the city.

On the day it opened, I think October 12, 1996, there were long queues waiting to get in. It was the first McDonald's in India. And Delhi was a different city back then.

@@ExperienceDelhi agree...i remember cousins from Delhi bragging about McDonald's in late 90s ...😆 Did you go on the opening day too?

I mean, usually they insist on reservation. Otherwise anyone can walk in. They are open from 5 pm to past midnight:).

@@ExperienceDelhi oh. OK. I thought its a personal story of shenanigans!

Thank you for your encouraging words 😊.

Glad you enjoyed it. It is one of my favourite spots in Delhi.

I know about the library which I use. Regarding english speaking course you may need to speak with someone at the British council. You can call them from Monday to Friday. They will answer your queries on the telephone.

Thank you for your encouragement 🙏.

Thank you for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed 😊.

Thank you for the feedback. And yes bilingual seems like a good idea. Soon would be uploading videos in bilingual format 🙏.

Yes, the event needed to be better advertised.

I like the vibe of Paharganj. And there are some lovely roof top cafes serving excellent food, in Paharganj.

@ExperienceDelhi yes, ended up in Paharganj a few years back, stayed overnight there in a journey break to change trains. Vibe was touristy, it was only after I left that people told me paharganj is considered shady and not very respectable...which came as a surprise considering I felt quite normal there...nothing out of ordinary... Had dinner at the hotels rooftop restaurant by chance... Had no idea about its history or landmarks then, will have to make a longer trip now.. 😊

Thanks for your encouragement. It is so good to get feedback on the videos I post 🙏.

Kala ghoda festival I used to attend every year, before 2020 covid. Used to enjoy my trip to Mumbai. Love that part of Mumbai: colaba and fort area.

I have reviewed a book on Colaba, in my other youtube channel. Would put a link to my other book reading channel, in the description of this channel🙏.

@@ExperienceDelhi been binge watching your vlogs ever since youtube algorithm got me to your channel while I was looking for rekhta festival. So, apologies for so many comments on your vlogs 😄

@@ExperienceDelhi where can I find a link to your other channel for book reviews. Or if you could give me the name I would search it. Thanks.

The collection of books was really good. Sadly not many people are aware of this event.

@@samk6051 it was advertised in The Times of India newspaper.

There are a combination of reasons I think. Though, hopefully this event should pick up in future. Jashn e rekhta also took time to get going. Though Jashn e rekhta is now more a commercial tamasha, less a literary event.

@@vidyapanicker1098 I don't live in Delhi, maybe it was a local ad...or maybe I didn't pay attention. But I do follow book fests and this one wasn't even on my radar that's what surprised me.

@@samk6051 Maybe the ad was advertised in Delhi edition only.

Next year you can attend

Delhi has a lot of hidden gems. I am happy to share my love of Delhi:).

Thanks for watching the video. And yes, Delhi has some amazing events and happenings. Glad you found it useful.

Very very nice 😊
