Nothing beats the 90s and nothing beats South Delhi boys. Here’s a list of things you’d definitely remember if you’re a Delhi guy who grew up in the southern part of the city in the 90s. Take a look and share a laugh over old times!

So Delhi boys, tell us which of these things resonate with you!

1. You wore the baggiest Wu Tang's / FUBU shorts back in middle school.

2. You waited in line to get inside the Mocha outlet outside M Block Market in GK.

3. The coolest thing to do for you in 2003 was to hang out in the PVR Anupam Saket / Priya Vasant Vihar markets.

4. You wore Nike, and later Converse kicks to school while the other kids wore Gola / Bata.

5. Delhi was (and still is) a triangle to you, with Friends Colony, Vasant Vihar and India Gate being the 3 vertices.

6. The only reason you crossed the DND flyway to Noida was to party at Elevate.

7. You actually attended the WWE RAW Tour of India in 2002!

 8. When you hear the words 'Aztec World', what comes to your mind is playing Counter Strike at a Reliance Web World!

15. You went to Monkey Bar when it was actually the Ministry of Sound.

16. You had your first sheesha at Hookah in VV or Village Cafe in SDA.
