Picture this. It is a sweltering May evening. It’s been a long week. You’ve just rewarded yourself with a hefty lunch and mangoes in three different forms; fruit, lassi and ice cream to ‘cool off’ and now you don’t know what to do with the rest of the weekend. As tiring as it is attending plans, making them can be even harder in weather that makes you crave a literal brain-freeze. So instead let us make plans for you because no heat is stopping this month from being a stacked one.
Perhaps the most exciting thing we have this month is Ye in India and Mochakk’s multicity India debut tour. IPL quite literally heats up with some beloved rivalries in action at Wankhede Stadium. Musicland is finally here after months of delays to celebrate local hip hop like no other.
A Time Out favourite, Art Night Thursday, is back on the list, among some other cool museum exhibits, festivals and galleries worth checking out. Bandra remains the trendiest neighbourhood with a one-of-a-kind gourmet night market and the opening of a new theatre space featuring some cool comedians. You would be remiss not to attend one of the many live gigs, International Jazz Day celebrations and EDM parties happening around the city. It seems like Mumbai sure knows how to keep up with the soaring temperatures.
