Nexus Mall Koramangala, Bengaluru
Nexus Mall in Koramangala is the old Forum Mall on Hosur Road, one of Bengaluru's best-known malls since it opened in 2004. It was renamed Nexus in 2022. It is compact rather than huge, with around 127 stores, a multi-level bookstore, a PVR cinema and cafes, and the restaurants of Koramangala are right outside.
One of the city's most popular malls. Cozy and atmospheric, with a bookstore, cinema, and cafes.
From Forum to Nexus
The mall was developed by the Prestige Group and opened in 2004 as The Forum, one of the first full-fledged malls in the city. In 2022, after Blackstone acquired it from Prestige, the Forum malls were rebranded as Nexus, and The Forum became Nexus Koramangala. If a local still calls it "Forum", this is the place.
The owner, Nexus Select Trust, gives its leasable area as about 0.3 million sq ft, with 127 stores and more than 90 domestic and international brands (data as of June 2026). It recently upgraded the food court.
