Your valentine isn’t the only one being spoiled this weekend - so is Mumbai, with a ton of concerts, festivals, stand-up shows and more. For music lovers especially, your toughest V-Day conversation with your loved one should be ‘which concert should we attend?’
There’s the obviously romantic stuff, and then there are experiences that warrant sharing with a loved one. Who doesn’t love canoodling during a movie screening?
