GVK one mall

I had been to this newest coolest and happening mall,the GVK one mall yesterday.I simply loved the look and decor inside.I was rich and every nook and corner was shining.The construction work was still going on at a few corners on few floors.The mall is not fully operational but am sure it ll take over the hyderabad party circuit by a storm.the floor and the tiles were shining as though some one sprinkled silver powder over the tiles.it was very neat clean and well maintained.the hep n happening crowd of hyderabad was present and i spotted many urban chic cool teenagers in the mall.The mall houses all the well known indian and international brands like mango,reebok,addidas,KFC,shoppers stop,soles,neeru’s,catwalk,oxygen spa and many many more.It also has the INOX!Do visit it for the cool relaxed and laid back look and enjoy yourself.Don’t forget to taste the kwality swirl thunderstorm in the fun center section.it just tastes heaven 😀

Have a look at these pictures of the mall.
