Bloggers bid adieu to Appu Ghar, Delhi

Saurabh got his nick name from the park

There are now umpteen number of amusement parks now in India but no one comes close to Appu Ghar. Personally, I share quite a few things with Appu Ghar. Appu Ghar is not just a place I liked visiting but it also gave me my nick name.

The Bikkupedia Blog recalls Sunday outings at the park

Even after I grew up a little beyond the age of playing on the swings, trips to Appu Ghar never stopped. I became a little choosy though.

How can I forget the blinding headache I developed after a ride on My Fair Lady or the horrible vomitings I had after two minutes on Appu Columbus?

Saikat Saha worries about the park’s staff

Appu Ghar is getting permanently closed tomorrow. Many of their staffs also are at the risk of getting unemployed according to news reports. I pray, hope and appeal that the employees are given alternative job oppurtunities. They deserve compensation or alternate job for the service they have rendered to millions of people and for bringing smile on their faces…

SBT has a nostalgic sentimental post

Delhi cannot forget Appu Ghar. In the days when malls and multiplexes were only a plan on paper, Appu Ghar was our most dependable source of entertainment. The place wasn’t just fun for the kids, Appu has given moments of fun to everyone who has ever been there. From kids having unlimited masti, people hogging on gol gappas and chat papadi, to love birds finding a reason to hold each other on the rides, Appu has seen it all.
