The Big Bazaar I've visited is in Lower Parel. And its tag line is all over the place saying.. isse sasta aur kahan. But I did'nt find this place all that interesting.. It may be useful for the people staying close to it. coz its a AC market and a very clean place. If you do'nt stay anywhere close to it then no point travelling all the way to visit there. The rates are not very different from what u are charged otherwise. I found the clothes section totally sad. Nothing interesting to chose from. I went there for shopping. but was'nt tempted to buy anything.
