The second park of the day was a much smaller indoor one located at the Infinity Mall in Malad, western Mumbai.
The mall opens at midday but is open late (in India this seems to be the norm). Expect a metal detector and frisk security process before being allowed in. This seems more theatre than actual risk prevention.
Up on the top floor is the amusement area and whilst there are signs requesting photos not be taken in the mall, I wasn't challenged.
To ride the coaster you need to buy a plastic card and get it charged up with enough points for the coaster. This is easily arranged at the ticket booth (just ask for the Astro Express) and you can return the card for your deposit back or keep it as a souvenir if you wish.
The coaster is a single looping ride from Italian ride maker IE Park and it runs really well with two lift hills, one to take you to the top of the first section and the second to prepare you for the loop. You get two laps per ride.
The rest of the rides consist of a small selection of games and spin rides.
As a brief stop this was fine. The range of shops in the mall make it a good place to ride and shop.
The Infinity Mall is located in North-West Mumbai in the Malad West district. There are two Infinity Malls in the city so make sure it's the Malad one if you're being driven there.
