The discussions in the background take the listener way back in time. With all the visuals of the city of '01 it almost felt like I am feeling nostalgic about a memory I never had. Thank you for this amazing piece of video.
Discussion in the back ground was amazing, ❤. I was only 1 yr old though at that time, but still had some vague memories of this calcutta , wooden busses, streets full of ambassador cars, its nostalgic.
Indeed, RUclips's a time machine. I wanna thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart 'Maurice Gubbay' sir for this gem of a video. So, my city looked like this around 22 years ago, i didn't knew of it. Watching this video in a chilly winter afternoon in Kolkata. (Nov17'2023)
A lot of nostalgia. Looks like it was early 2001 as that TMC protest near Gandhi statue happened around that time. Also, no Park Street flyover, Rediffmail billboard on Park Street/Chowringhee crossing and that Music World store (before internet k1lled it) on Middletone Row crossing. Golden days.
2001 kolkata was so much more bengali-eish and better than today's kolkata. I think kolkata is becoming more n more crowded and with it more garbages and more wasted products can be seen everywhere. I hope the Bengalis of Kolkata revives the city and make it what it's known for. 🙏
Kolkata has become much less crowded than it was during the 90s or 80s , chiefly because many people had left the city with its decline during the 70s and 80s.
It feels so amazing to watch the roads of Calcutta the way they were 23 years ago. Park Street and St. Xavier's College, I would like to mention particularly, was stupendous because I can relate to it being a present student of that college.
oh it's so nice to listen to the background discussion and look at Kolkata as it was on 2001..looked at those silvery buses, musicworld...and many other things which r no longer there...A glimpse into my teenage days...feeling very nostalgic
there was no go pro i guess at 2001 also no iphone was that popular. also the quality of the video footage is like a vga camera. thus probably a basic camera i guess
way back then if cpim could have destroyed that woman ..curse of bengal mamta...we would not be in such a pathetic situation as we r now......she single handedly took down bengal deep inside the grave.....hate that woman from deep core inside....nyways memories cherished..revisited.....ol calcutta spclly before 2011 ...best calcuttans would have ever dreamt offffffffffffffff.......
Hate that man from the core of my heart who didn't allow computer in kolkata and in turn sillicon valley went to bangalore and with thousands of educated migrants went out of kolkata...

Nice joke. Kolkata is several times better now.
Your frustration is clearly visible in your sad comment. 😂😂

Watching this video was like going back in time for me. Thank you!
How time flies. How you doing?
Its 5:25 in the morning and i literally search 2001 Kolkata an found this gem....❤️❤️❤️❤️
St. Xaviers was more popular for commerce than science when I was there in 90s
I was 18 years older then, feeling much nostalgia ❤

It seems age old video making me remember my old days.
Science is key to life So make it passion that time kolkata was free of traffic
Nowadays car doesn’t move
This was a memory I want to go Such a polite Taxi Driver ❤
Wow.... Never been such amazed to see so much things about the city I am living
Great video. Need more videos of early 2000d
thats some really interesting conversation going on in the background...
Kolkata is really nostalgia old pic🖼️, very nice.
The park Street flyover is missing at the maidan crossing
This is a great video. Thanks Sir.
Music World besides Flury's - Wow miss those days
8:26 the "Music World" store at the heart of Park Street. Good old days.
I bought 2 A R Rahman concert tickets from Music World. :)
My city 💙 ❤️ ♥️ 💕 💛
The conversation in the background is equally interesting
Thank you for uploading this video :)
Thanks 🙏
Should have mentioned how old these clips are... as in when they were shot...these seem ages old ....
No mobile no laptop what a life it was
damn this is a pure nostalgia.. and look at the political meetings there.. ! the orator here speaks about the murders.. :)
This voice is very known! Any ideas whose voice is this?
There's hardly any private cars. And no smartphones. Everything changed after that
I was about 5 years old when this video was shot.
pure time capsule!
This is the city of my childhood! Sad to have seen it change for the worse
I remember me the way of the Jhoytti Basu's coffin in all the streets of Kolkata, that was in winter. I've pic of.
So the city was like this when i took birth. Just feeling surreal how much the city has changed. 23 years and counting.
Memories within memories.
This was the time where park Street and thether road one way up and down.. time changes at 2 pm..
Hi Maurice where do you stay now are you british? What equipment you used for filming? Guess bo iPhone or go pro😀
its mostly a camcoder
there was no go pro i guess at 2001 also no iphone was that popular. also the quality of the video footage is like a vga camera. thus probably a basic camera i guess
