Now, it’s the 21st century, the age of virtual reality. That’s the sort of gaming experience available at Forever Land, a space that opened up in Lower Parel six months before the pandemic hit. It then shut down, only for operations to start once again this August after restrictions were eased. The place is designed in a family-friendly manner. “If you think about gaming arcades back in the day, they were dark places,” says Sushil Sanghvi, who is the co-founder along with Prashant Jain and Pratik Murarka. But their venue is a colourful space, he shares, adding that even his mother has had a gala time there.
