Vijay Nagar is Indore’s busiest modern neighbourhood, with malls, offices, coaching centres, cafés and restaurants lining the main roads. It is popular with students and young professionals, many of whom moved to Indore for study or work. For Myra members, Vijay Nagar is the most common place in the city to meet for a first coffee, thanks to its wide choice of cafés and its central location in the newer part of Indore. Introductions here often include people from Scheme 54, Scheme 78, Nipania, Sukhliya and Bombay Hospital area. The neighbourhood is especially lively in the evening, when the cafés fill up and families head to the malls. Meghdoot Garden offers a calm place for a walk after coffee. Many members here enjoy food and films, which often appear as shared interests on introductions, and they make an easy start to any conversation. Weekend mornings are calmer, when cafés serve breakfast to a relaxed crowd. Twenty years ago much of this land was open fields beyond the old city limits; today the Indore Development Authority’s numbered schemes cover it with apartment blocks and offices. The C21 mall on AB Road was among the first large shopping centres in central India, and it is still a familiar landmark for meeting friends. On Sunday mornings the area is unusually calm, and the joggers at the Meghdoot garden track are often the only crowd. The Bombay Hospital side has quieter tea shops favoured by doctors and students from the nearby colleges.
