Editorial – September 2025

This September, TownParle highlights Vile Parle’s unique blend of community, wellness, creativity, and tradition. Architect Rashmi Phulkar discusses the importance of safe, people-friendly walkways, while our wellness feature explores Abhyangam, Shirodhara, and tips for healthy Navratri fasting.
Adding a creative edge, this issue presents a witty poem on redevelopment by Prakash Joshi, humorously capturing the circus-like challenges of Mumbai’s co-operative housing projects.
We also spotlight innovation with Designer Glaminates by Dr. Medha Pethe – a patented, trendsetting way to transform your smile into a style statement. These removable, non-invasive laminates are like “jewellery for your teeth,” perfect for festive occasions, weddings, or simply expressing your mood.
Local achievements shine as Parle Tilak Vidyalaya (ICSE) opens Pre-Primary admissions for 2026–27 and Grade 8 student Payal Parekh wins Gold at the CISCE National Karate Championship. Upcoming highlights include Mahalaxmi Pujan (29 September) and Grahak Peth (3–12 October), keeping festive spirit alive.
This issue celebrates Vile Parle’s rhythm—where modern living, wellness, innovation, and tradition meet.
