Bengaluru Debates Decline of Mall Culture

People in Bengaluru are talking about whether malls in the city are losing their charm.

Some say malls feel boring and the same, with the same stores and food.

They miss the fun and excitement they used to have.

One new mall, Phoenix Mall of Asia, is getting good reviews for being big and exciting.

But others say malls are still popular, especially on weekends.

Some malls are even adding new things like games and markets to attract people.

Recently, Mantri Mall was temporarily closed because it didn't pay its taxes, but it reopened quickly.

The city is trying to collect taxes from other places too.
