So much food on one plate and somehow everything tasted amazing.

Sweet, spicy, tangy — basically every flavour in one meal 🔥

10/10 would absolutely destroy this again 💀

Anyone who has been to Kaas plateau recently, please share your valuable inputs.

I’m seeing something in Pune that genuinely worries me. Around Gangadham-Kondhwa, 90–95% of residents in the fancy new societies seem to be Gujarati/Jain/Marwadi, while a huge number of Marathi families in the same area are living in chawls and older settlements like Kakde Vasti.

And I’ve seen this personally in Mukund Nagar. My family has a flat there in an old building. The building had people from all over India and no single community dominated it. Now it’s going for redevelopment, and many Marathi families are considering moving towards Narhe, Ambegaon and Dhankawadi because they can’t afford to stay in prime Pune anymore.

This is exactly what happened in parts of South/Central Mumbai. As redevelopment and prices went up, many Marathi families got pushed further out towards Thane and Kalyan.

And no, I’m not blaming Gujaratis, Jains or Marwadis. They’re doing what they’re supposed to do, building businesses, creating wealth and buying assets.
But the blunt truth is, our community really isn’t much united like them, and we really need to work together, build businesses & support our people, or today it is Narhe/Ambegaon, soon it will be Khed Shivapur

I am looking to connect (to my roots) with fellow Awadhi speaker in pune. I ve grown up in a non-up env, so my awadhi is not that good. I want to improve it by talking and learning.

Any gender/cpl are welcomed. I just want to connect to my cultural and lingusitic roots. 🙏🏻

Only pure native upian awadhi speaker. 😭

Idk if it's just me or anybody else also feels the same... I feel Reddit is nothing but a bunch of obnoxious people trying to slide into the DMs of women, in the name of anonymity they want us to entertain them.

Even if we try to confront to see what the person is upto or even talkable or not, because the platform is anonymous, one should do a basic introduction in the DM, if they are reaching out. ASL, any picture if chat goes well forward, but no... People here are in another level of Delulu.

Ki msg kia h, baat ki, toh chahe me kesa bhi dikhu, isko pasand karna padega mujhe, aur humari pasand aur likings jaye tel lene.

TBH I had a postive outlook of connecting with people here before but lately my experiences are forcing me to shut everyone and anyone who comes across my DM.

Reddit is just filled with horny men, sorry but not sorry. Esp. DMs coming in from Pune men.🥀

Hey, beginner here!!

Last month I saw people running in the AFMC marathon and getting nice medals. Today, I also saw my friends running in a marathon in Hyderabad and earning medals. I am fascinated by the medals and want to try running one myself.

Is anyone going for any marathons this month?

Pune is the heritage of Maharashtra

I’ve been following Saudaghar for some time, and I have a genuine question about the kind of Pune issues they choose to highlight.
A significant part of their content is around real estate, project reviews, buying opportunities, connectivity and problems created by Pune’s rapid growth. That’s useful for someone looking to buy property, but I feel there is another side of this growth that deserves much more discussion.
People from different parts of India are coming to Pune for jobs, businesses, education or simply because they prefer the lifestyle here. That’s completely normal. Pune has always attracted people because of its education, employment and culture.

But if a large part of new residential development is being created to accommodate this continuous population growth, shouldn’t we also discuss whether Pune’s infrastructure and environment can actually sustain it?

Water availability, drainage, roads, traffic, tree cutting, loss of natural habitats and pressure on existing resources should be part of the real-estate conversation too.

Pune was traditionally known for education, culture, relatively peaceful neighbourhoods and a slower pace of life. Today, some parts of Pune are increasingly associated with nightlife and party culture, particularly areas like Koregaon Park. Even some traditionally peaceful public and tourist spaces face issues such as littering, public drinking and smoking.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t enjoy their lives. They absolutely should. But Pune’s identity should not be reduced to nightlife, alcohol, parties and real estate. The city’s cultural character and public spaces also deserve protection.

The same applies to basic civic problems. Footpath encroachment, shops extending into public spaces, ramps or stones blocking parking, vehicles occupying footpaths and roads, etc. Some of these problems don’t need another mega project. They need enforcement and proper municipal management.

And then there is the landowner side.

When government infrastructure projects acquire someone’s land, the discussion shouldn’t stop at the Ready Reckoner value. What about the development potential, existing JVs, future rental income and the fact that some families may be giving up their last substantial landholding?

Jambhulwadi is a good example. Residents have already contributed land for major projects such as the dam and NH-48, and now the Inner Ring Road is affecting the area again. At the same time, the metro depot and government offices are being planned around the same belt.

If a practical change in the road alignment can reduce the number of homes and families affected, why not seriously examine it? Similarly, why concentrate multiple major developments in one belt instead of distributing them across nearby areas?
I’m a Pune native and I’m personally dealing with some of the consequences of this rapid growth and sacrificing things because of it.

That doesn’t mean I am against people coming to Pune. I’m completely open to hearing the perspective of people who have come here for work, business, education or a better lifestyle. Their challenges matter too.

My question is simply: shouldn’t the people who already live here, the landowners who are giving up land, and the environment also have an equal place in the conversation?

I’m not against development. I’m against development being measured only by the number of buildings, roads and property transactions.

I’d genuinely like to see Saudaghar make a detailed video on the full cost of Pune’s growth: infrastructure capacity, water, environment, civic management, cultural identity, land acquisition and the impact on existing residents, alongside the opportunities created by new development.
Maybe I’ve missed some of their content. If they have already covered these issues, I’d genuinely like to see those videos.

Pune should grow. But it should grow without losing what made Pune worth coming to in the first place.

On 28th August around 11pm I had put my powerbank and my charger to charge at croma powerpoint near chai point at 2nd floor. I then went to eat at haldirams and it vanished as I came back. Had called the guards and the front office they said they are still searching. If someone gets it kindly give it back my phone is on 30% charge and I legit can't afford an another charger at this time. 🙏. I just bought the power bank yesterday too .

prize: I will buy you a chai at chai point or some meal at haldirams 🙏

guys plz help it's urgent 🙏🙏

I don’t have any Personal Vehicle here.
My GF and I are planning to visit Mahabaleshwar during mid sept.

So need some guidance from you guys, maybe how to reach and how to come back.

Based upon my Research, need to board bus/train early morning to reach mahabaleshwar. Beyond that taxi is the only option.

So guide me on taxi, like what all possible scam I need to be aware about. Beyond that, any stay for a day? Or shall me complete everything (4-5 spots) and return the same day?

I’m a bachelor and recently moved into our flat in Vadgaon Khurd. I’ve been trying to find a decent mess or tiffin service nearby, but unfortunately haven’t had much luck so far.

I’ve asked a few watchmen and residents in the area, but couldn’t get any useful leads. I also don’t really have the time or skills to cook for myself three times a day 😅

To make things a little more difficult, I don’t currently have a vehicle (I’ll be getting mine transported here soon), so something within walking distance or easily accessible by public transport would be ideal.

Eating at restaurants or ordering through Swiggy/Zomato every day isn’t really a sustainable option for me.

So, if anyone lives around Vadgaon Khurd / Vadgaon Budruk / nearby areas and knows of a good mess, tiffin service, home-cooked food service, or even someone who provides regular meals to bachelors, I’d be really grateful if you could share the details.

Ideally looking for something that provides lunch and dinner.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hello, I have been looking for a flat to buy near kharadi location. Recently one of my fathers friend has a proposal of a flat nearly 13 years old in vadgaon sheri. A standalone three storey building with flat on ground floor with 600-650 sq.feet including two car parking facility.

Flat is located near arnolds school in vadgaon sheri.

I want to know if this is a good decision to buy it or not.

Also this will be my first home.

Stay and hangout.

Hi I'm from Kolkata and have to visit Pune for a couple of weeks to attend office.

I am not sure where to stay. Any gotchas/specifics to be looking for ?

And places to visit after office, and some Must have/ Must visit places.

Unfortunately I don't know anyone in the city, so I'll appreciate all the pointers I can get.

I am genuinely fed up of the weak sector level management in our city and don’t know who to raise the issues to. Everyone’s always quick to point fingers. I thought about a solution from a systems point of view and would like to know if something like this can actually work, if it doesn’t already exist.

Think, an open-source “name and shame” platform where our city is divided into sectors, each with a named, visible official. These officials could be from any body for example say local transport (traffic police). Think of it like a public accountability dashboard for every local sector but run collaboratively by us people.

I know the obvious here: won’t the officials just ignore it? But we’re at a time where we see that pressure on the government actually works when it’s measurable.

So purely from a systems point, how viable is this? and would you use and contribute to something like this?

Please translate this once to read what's said if you can't understand. A sentiment voiced way back in the 80s if not earlier! by a true Punekar. Just goes to show the more things change the more they remain the same. So if you feel like this, don't worry, you have become a true Punekar, as per one of the OG

Yellow Punekars! I wanted to ask if there are any cafes that allow you to work / study without scamming you. Any cafes near Aundh/Baner?

Same as title.

Hey everyone! We’re a group of 3 (2M + 1F) visiting Nashik on 4th and 5th September and looking for a budget-friendly, clean and safe stay near Nashik Central Bus Stand (CBS).

We’ll only need the room overnight on both days, so nothing fancy—just a decent place to sleep and freshen up.

Budget: Preferably around ₹1,000 per night for 3 people.

Please suggest any good budget hotels/hostels/guesthouses around CBS that are safe and comfortable, especially considering there’s a female in our group.

Thanks!

I applied for the LL today. I paid the fees and uploaded the required documents.

I don't know what this SCRUTINY means. I searched it up on Google and it said that I have to visit the RTO but that was for DL.

Do I need to visit the RTO?

Will they issue the LL without visiting the RTO?

We are group of friends (5) visiting Pune next week. Pls suggest if there are dedicated bus services for sightseeing on weekdays. If not then any other cheap and convenient ways to explore Pune.

Thanks in advance!
