Here Are Some Oddly Amusing Names of Places In Karachi
Naagin-Season-2-Episode-16-27th-November-2016-Written-Episode-Watch-Online.jpg

I was resting in Aram Bagh, wondering whether I should try someplace different. So I hopped in my car and drove to Lalu Khait, to meet Lalu. After wasting a couple of hour, I found out that he is at Shanti Nagar having a moment of peace. I needed a place with some life to it. I made a beeline for Disco Mor, where I danced so much, I wore out my shoes.

Yup, the places in Karachi has some weirdly amusing names, I was born and raised in Karachi, yet I always find the names for the places either confusing or oddly funny. Here is the list below

1. Khadda Market
My assumption is there used to be a big Khadda ( Hole ) over there, where people used to sell stuff. Hence, named Khadda Market.

I suppose it’s high time to change the name since, the roads are now finely paved.



2. Soldier Bazar
As goes the name, ready-made soldiers available here.

Images of Kala Pul and 2 Minute chowrangi are incorrect however, there a lot of more names with history to them like Lalu Khait, 3 Hatti (Hatti used as a shop in Punjabi I think), Guru Mandar, Ranchor Lane, Nagin Chowrangi, Bhens Colony, Chamra Chowrangi etc.
