City Hangouts – Chullu Kebab Nayab, Clifton Block 5
An instant favorite. Chullu Kebab Nayab is such a welcome addition to affordable everyday eateries in Clifton.

Anjuman Taraqqi-i-Urdu has a nostalgic sound to it yet it is very relevant to the times that we live in. Founded in 1903, it remains one of the oldest institutions working for the promotion of Urdu language. It actually started as a movement. For years Hindus has been making a case for adoption of Hindi […]
