Gali Paranthe Wali[1] or Paranthe wali Gali (Шаблон:Lang-hi,[2] literally "the bylane of flatbread") is a narrow street in the Chandni Chowk area of Delhi, India, noted for its series of shops selling paratha, an Indian flatbread.

History

Gali Paranthe Wali is located in Chandni Chowk, which was established in 1650 during the reign of the Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan, and designed by his daughter, Jahanara Begum.[3] Previously, this lane was known only for its silverware shops, before the Parantha shops moved in, starting in the 1870s,[4][5] though many sari and jewellery shops remain.

Of the 20 parantha shops in the late 1960s (all belonging to branches of the same family),[6] three remain: Pt Kanhaiyalal Durgaprasad Dixit (established 1875), Pt Dayanand Shivcharan (established 1882). Pt Baburam Devidayal Paranthewale (established 1886). By 1911, this area, known as Chota Dariba or Dariba Kalan, got the name Paranthewali Gali. In the years just after independence, Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, and Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit came to take their parantha meals in this gali.[7] In the late 1980s many of them closed shop and moved out, though today the street is experiencing a revival and some shops are being run by the sixth generation of the same family.

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar used to live in the area.[8] Flight lieutenant Tapan Kapoor of the Indian Air Force who died in a rescue operation at Uttarakhand on 25 June 2013 was also a resident of Paranthe Wali Galli.[9]
