Forum Mall Koramangala welcomes RCB cricketers to Ed Hardy showroom

Forum Mall Koramangala is the hub of all action and entertainment in Bangalore. Almost a decade ago when it opened, it was one of the earliest malls in Bangalore where everyone wished to go regularly and indulge in some world class shopping, entertainment and dining options. With 2 dozen malls opening up since then, Forum Mall Koramangala has still retained the charm and of a suburban neighborhood mall which is a cool place to hangout with your friends and family not just on weekends but also during weekdays.

Some of the best world class stores like Ed Hardy are present in Forum Mall Koramangala. Built on inspirations from The Godfather of Tattoos, Don Ed Hardy’s distinctive graphic tattoo designs and sketches, Ed Hardy is one such rarity that has become renowned for bringing the graphic sub-culture onto mainstream fashion runways across the globe. As the brand forays into the Indian market with its first store under Arvind Lifestyle Brands Ltd. at Forum Mall Koramangala, they invited us bloggers to the store for interactions with the players and to get a preview of the latest collection.

I was really excited about this as I’m a big fan of Royal Challengers Bangalore and always wanted to meet the team. I had met few players earlier too like Gayle and Kohli but it was wonderful to know that we will have an opportunity to meet more players like Ab de Villiers, Albie Morkel, Mitchell Starc, Yuvraj Singh and Varun Aaron. I know Gayle is one of the biggest fans of Ed Hardy collection so it was wonderful to know that I could meet him and ask him about questions about his favorite collection.

Forum Mall Koramangala always creates wonderful events which we always remember. I was a part of an event in a sporting showroom in Forum Mall Koramangala in 2013 when Gayle came down to meet his fans along with Muralidharan, Vettori and others. The event was a huge success with thousands of people packing Forum Mall Koramangala to the brim and ensuring that they had a great time interacting with their cricketing heroes. The organization by Forum Mall Koramangala was impeccable and there no was security issues at all!

Thanks to Media Moments the PR agency handling Forum Mall Koramangala and Ed Hardy, we were able to meet the Royal Challengers Bangalore cricket players and interact with them. We asked them questions about what they felt about the mall and the clothing store. Gayle and Yuvraj mentioned that the Forum Mall Koramangala is their preferred destination for shopping world class brands while in Bangalore. They also said that Ed Hardy clothing is legendary which they prefer to showcase their style statement.

World famous cricketers like Chris Gayle and Yuvraj Singh were very down to earth and interacted with their fans to pose for photographs and give autographs. Yuvraj and Gayle loved some of the collection at Ed Hardy Showroom in Forum Mall Koramangala and picked them up for their cricketing trips in India and Abroad.

It was a wonderful meet and greet event organized by Forum Mall Koramangala and Ed Hardy showroom for the bloggers and media people. We could see the humane side of the cricketers and also got a rare opportunity to interact with them and experience their sense of humor first hand too!
