Galleria is a covered market where you can do street shopping but with the convenience of a mall. Everything is contained under this palatial and architecturally beautiful marvel, from fashion to phone accessories, all in one spot. The complex is huge and the variety of shops lets you be at ease because you don’t need to hop from market to market to buy different things. Other than fulfilling your shopping needs, it also takes care of your after or before shopping fuel with numerous places where you can eat. Waiters will come up to you and pitch that their eatery is the best, but you can eat whatever you want to.
A Beginner's Guide To Finding Everything You Need At Galleria In Powai
What Makes It Awesome
What To Buy Here
The market can be explored in laps. If you didn’t find something the first time, take another round and you might. There are apparel shops that house everything from tops that start from INR 500, trousers/jeans/dresses from INR 1,000 for women, along with t-shirts from INR 250 and casual and formal shirts from INR 600 for men. The market is also buzzing with boutiques selling ethnic wear, and there are quite a lot of them that sell ready-made suit-salwars, kurtis, tops and more.
For fitness fanatics, you can get all your sports gear here at good discounts. You’ll find cute hair bows for INR 80, super comfy crocs-style footwear for around INR 500 or less if you’ve got decent bargaining skills, and sling bags or crossbody at INR 350. For phone accessories, there are more than enough stalls, but IFix is a must-visit because they have fun and quirky phone cases for INR 250 and pop-sockets at INR 200.
My personal favourite is a shop called The Jackpot (also in Colaba), and every time I’m here, I walk out with at least one kurta as they’re very well-made and cost just INR 350 and dresses go for INR 500. If you love a good deal on artificial jewellery, check out Popular Art Jewellery, where prices start at INR 100. You’ll also spot scarves for INR 300 and even a tiny bookstore that lets you buy a book, read it and return it like a little lending library.

How To Reach
The Galleria Powai is right in the heart of Hiranandani Gardens. If you're coming by train, the nearest station is Kanjurmarg or Vikhroli on the Central Line, from where you can get an auto or take a quick cab ride to reach here. If you're driving down from the western line, the mall is very close to the Jogeshwari-Vikhroli link road.
