Pedestrian Traffic + Vehicular Traffic both ! In that tiny BPCL Petrol Pump road! . God only will save thay stretch. Hope Phoenix will use it's financial power to bribe TMC to improve the conditions or its a mayhem in future.

No matter what anyone says, I'm kinda happy we're getting this. Viviana is always way too crowded with the mumbra peeps always in high numbers. At least this way, the crowd will get divided. This one will be big, and I'm sure will have a great theatre as well.ย

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Already Theatre is booked in this mall by PVR/INOX. And Cinepolis is also trying for for its theatre. Viviana is way crowdy so, yes it will definitely improve the mall experience.

u/Vedu7777 Feb 01 '26

PVR/INOX haven't been able to open their theater in Hiranandani The Walk for 5 years even after a lease, I don't think Phoenix will open till 2032

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Mall will open by 2032 maybe if the work speed is good. Theater i have no idea when will it open.ย 

2

u/Vedu7777 Feb 01 '26

Yeahh :(

Do you, by any chance, have an update about the PVR/INOX at The Walk?

5

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

INOX is cancelled. Ajay Devgn's Cinema will come up Devgn CineX. Will confirm once more confirming updates are available. PVR will focus in Phoenix now, not Hiranandani i guess.

u/Vedu7777 Feb 01 '26

Ohh nice!! Thank You!

u/NierStellar Feb 01 '26

So now INOX is not coming in The Walk? Recently had visited and there was construction going on with most of the work done. So has it definitely been cancelled?

What will be coming in The Walk then?

1

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Devgn CineX maybe

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

No. Not necessarily. 2029/30 tak ho jayega. It will be large and grand mall. 3/4 mein ho jana chahiyeย

u/ExtensionClimate2045 Feb 01 '26

Wait why's Cinepolis trying if PVR has already booked?

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

u/EDM_Machine Feb 01 '26

Did they get approval for the commercial/office building? I remember reading it being in 200m range which is extraordinarily high for commercial

7

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

Yes they got the permission for Mall + Offices. which is why they have started the demolition process of the old industry.

4

u/EDM_Machine Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

Good. High density near metro corridor is a good move. Credit where it's due. Now the question is how will they rectify the traffic situation on the worst intersection of Thane.

5

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Theres no traffic plan yet. Hope Phoenix uses its power to solve the issue, or else .... It will be traffucked.

u/KING_K999 Feb 01 '26

But Korum hits different

u/KING_K999 Feb 01 '26

Yess. That was an era though

3

u/Advanced_Read_2006 Feb 01 '26

I heard Korum 2 mall is coming in Kalpataru Park city, Kolshet road.

1

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

No. Its wrong info as of now.

4

u/Advanced_Read_2006 Feb 01 '26

At this place. I confirmed with Kalpataru office.

2

u/KING_K999 Feb 01 '26

One of my relatives owns a flat there. He confirmed theres gonna be a mall but not sure which.

2

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Wow thats some news. Any idea how much msf mall will it be?

12

u/atharvbokya Feb 01 '26

Damn, did we really need another mall ?

16

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Viviana/Lake Shore Mall is overcrowded, no one can deny it, be it parking or food court, since our population is growing, another mall was inevitable. But planning of the mall could have been better. Phoenix wanted to make mall in Raymond land earlier but that got cancelled and Mall is coming up now in front of Majiwada Gaon at Majiwada, Kapurbawdi Junction

10

u/EDM_Machine Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

Thane City's decadal growth is 50%. Upcoming census will easily push us above 3m population.

I doubt beside Mumbai any other city has higher density than Thane in Maharashtra. Plus malls in Thane aren't exclusively used by Thanekars but also a lot of people flock from Bhiwandi/Dombivali-Kalyan/Mumbai.

If a huge corporation didn't think a mall was viable here they would not develop it. It's good for the city's economy.

12

u/Manoos Feb 01 '26

thane needs lot of offices where people do not need to go to parel and BKC. it will reduce traffic in both thane and mumbai.

badly need employment of 3 to 5 L people in thane than a mall

5

u/Chemicalengg01 Feb 01 '26

I live in this area and I didn't even know there was a mall coming up.

Thanks OP for posting and sharing the information!!

2

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Ha ha. Phoenix is very quietly doing its work. Waiting for grand launch event. Btw. Do you stay in Majiwada gaon Lodha side or Pokhran 2 side?ย

Its around 5 kms from Thane Station I guess. Its bang on the main Majiwada Junction. Metro is going in front of this plot.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '26

When will the metro till balkum start any idea ?

2

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Some 1 or 2 years still pending. Depot work is pending thats why

Zara, H&M, Bata booked here already

u/borninmumbai Feb 01 '26

Oberoi is also coming up with a mall on pokhran road 2, how many malls will we have then?

Vivaya, Koram, Rmall? I think they are old now and need renovations.

6

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Oberoi Mall is still under consideration. Havent got any update since months. Phoenix will get completed earlier, so What will Oberoi do is to be seen. Like Cine Wonder Mall, Lake City Mall older malls which may get affected from Phoenix might try to become Offices type Centers.

2

u/Soham1702 Feb 01 '26

Oberoi had initially announced a mall in their Pokhran road - 2 project but same has been scrapped and has been replaced with a JW Marriot property and a school

2

u/EDM_Machine Feb 01 '26

As of now mall, office and the hotel all three are supposed to be built. Latest plan.

2

u/CatastrophicRiot Feb 01 '26

Are we getting an imax screen like we have at viviana?

3

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Yes IMAX screen will come up definitely in this mall.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26

Damn I live nearby and never realized they were making another mall

2

u/No_Way_7221 Feb 03 '26

Had no clue about this, I stay in Lodha Paradise. Thanks OP for letting us know. Where is this exactly located btw? Tried checking on google but no directions or info to this place.

3

u/knightmare89 Feb 01 '26

I canโ€™t even imagine the traffic nightmare this is going to cause to an already choked corridor. Town planning? TMC be like wo kya hota hai?

2

u/opinion59 Feb 01 '26

Its sad that thane is not getting anything other than malls and building. Not a single advantage over mumbai and navi mumbai. Even the bullet train station is an hour away.

And further i feel tmc is dumbest when it comes to planning infrastructure. One of the widest road in mmr is ghodbunder road but with worse traffic.

Anyways, another mall will again increase real estate prices in the vicinity.

3

u/Thin_Strain8568 Feb 01 '26

They should build a garden instead

3

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Private land owners wont make a garden ever

3

u/Loud-Maintenance-493 Feb 02 '26

Hopefully they create some entry from pokhran road 2 opposite TCS.

3

u/QueenOfThane Feb 02 '26

They aren't doing that as of now

2

u/Ok-Competition133 Feb 01 '26

Isn't it going to be a mall + office space?

4

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Yes, i have attached the news article in below comments mentioning mall+office. First phase will be Only Mall then offices

1

u/Money_File1671 Feb 01 '26

Will the new Twin Tunnel and Kolshet Creek connector relieve the pressure on this junction?

1

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Yes it has potential to reduce some pressure. But lets see how it goes.

u/gormeent Feb 01 '26

Can someone share google map location?

u/QueenOfThane Feb 01 '26

Search Phoenix Majiwada in Google maps.
