"Futuristic" Changing Room In Goa Store Leaves UK Couple Amazed: "Third World Who?"

NDTV3 days ago
A video showing a high-tech changing room at a store in India that a British couple says they've never seen before is going viral online. Liam and Dani Cross, who run the YouTube channel Travel With The Crosses, shared a video on Instagram showing the innovative changing room setup they came across in Goa. In the clip, they claimed that they have not seen such technology even in stores in Dubai, London or New York. "Look how futuristic these changing rooms are," Dani said in the clip as her husband, Liam, walked into the changing room.
"This is not in Dubai, this is not in London, this is not in New York. This is India. I'm sorry but India?! Third world who?! This is better than shopping in Wales!! Back where the salesman 'goes to the back' to check if they have your size... when clearly they leave the room, scroll on TikTok for a minute, then come back empty-handed. Gotta give it to India for the shopping experience," the caption of the post read.

The couple visited the Azorte store in South Goa. In the video, Liam picked up three clothing items and walked into the trial room. As soon as he entered, a screen behind him automatically displayed all three items along with their sizes.
"The mirror picks up the items and their sizes. And then, say you want another size, you can choose on the screen and they will bring it to you," Dani explained. She said that the screen also shows items that can be paired with the clothing and options to ask staff to bring them to the changing room to try out.
"How cool is that? How amazing is that? India is in the future, man," she said, praising the store.

Agra-born adventurer lifts off to edge of space in Blue Origin's spacecraft

. An 80-year-old Agra-born adventurer-cum-businessman, Arvinder 'Arvi' Singh Bahal, lifted off to the edge of space aboard Blue Origin's NS-34 mission along with five other crew members on Sunday. The suborbital flight lifted off from the company's Launch Site One in West Texas at 6:00 p.m. IST, marking another milestone in private human spaceflight. Bahal was part of Blue Origin's 14th human flight to suborbital space. The flight, lasting 11 minutes, carried a six-member crew to the Kármán line — the internationally recognised boundary that separates Earth's atmosphere from space. Bahal was accompanied by tech entrepreneur Justin Sun, Turkish businessman Gokhan Erdem, Puerto Rican meteorologist Deborah Martorell, British teacher Lionel Pitchford and venture capitalist JD Russell. Describing Bahal, Jeff Bezos-owned Blue Origin wrote, 'Arvi is a real estate investor born in Agra, India, and now a naturalised US citizen. A lifelong traveler and adventurer, Arvi has visited every country in the world, the North and South poles, and skydived Mount Everest and the Pyramids of Giza'. The 80-year-old holds a private pilot's licence and also flies helicopters. The India-born adventurer lives in Beverly, Massachusetts and has been a naturalised US citizen since 1979. Bahal, who grew up near the Taj Mahal, had joined the National Defence Academy in 1962 but left due to a polo accident that caused him partial hearing loss. Later, he worked on a Scottish-owned tea plantation in Darjeeling for nearly four years. By 1970, he ventured into the garment manufacturing business near Delhi. He later migrated to the US. Besides setting up Bahal Properties — a real estate company he has led since 1975, Bahal has built successful ventures in fashion, sportswear and hospitality over the past 45 years. He recently wrote his first book, Tireless Traveler, and plans to write many more travel books.
