Ah yes true Nilgiris sell chicken, mince puffs etc.<BR/><BR/><BR/>anon: Oh ok. Another one bites the dust soon eh :( i thought there was some other complication - the Urban Arts Commission rule that no building over 100 years old can be pulled down unless if falls of its own accord (do i hear evil laughter from Opera owners?)<BR/><BR/>rach: Yep, thank god its back to life!! By the way there were about 10 English theatres in Blr those days But of course I've only regularly done the the Rex-Plaza-Symphony-Galaxy golden quadrilateral :)<BR/><BR/>penguin: 10 rupees you will get aa? I think now only one puff you may or may not get that too. That 7 rs softie is still there though. Please note eatable pups comment above :)<BR/><BR/>nerfheader: That boy was me! Sniff.. waill!! Sob sob. Thank you for doing this to me.<BR/><BR/>usha: Yes one or two of them still survive, but now dressed smartly in shirt pant and green cap itseems. Last time I saw her barking at someone who asked her to heat the coffee. Ah allsaints person you are aa? very good yes I agree their stuff is good.

Nilgiris, of the days when the only English movie in town would be either in Rex or Plaza (with the broken seats) - that's when I remember going there the most. I think the emergence of Multiplex Bangalore somehow coincided with the emergence with the New Nilgiris Management..and things didn't go so well after that, did it? Haven't been there in a while, but I'm guessing the cake shop still rocks.Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09791351711056663599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5636536530950102632.post-22752940662898066832008-05-03T07:32:00.000-07:002008-05-03T07:32:00.000-07:00The opera building was under litigation and about ...The opera building was under litigation and about two years ago it was handed over ot its true owners. he has fenced it and must be waiting for the right deal !<BR/><BR/>-VAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
