Description:
Bandra’s side lanes after nine still carry that mix of sea breeze and distant traffic. Riya likes starting there, near the quieter end toward Pali Hill, where the lights from the main road feel far enough.
A short drive toward the stretch by Bandstand or simply staying put with good conversation works equally well for her. The private companionship stays flexible, shaped more by the moment than any fixed plan.
When the tide is low the air near the promenade turns cooler, and that is often when the evening settles into something unhurried and real.
