When the latter shut its doors at its legendary Elgin Road address, the founders had something much bigger in mind. On August 8, STORY returned with a new store and with the same passion.\u00a0<\/p><p>Located right opposite to the Salt Lake stadium, the new STORY is poised to carry on the ethos of its predecessor, boasting a collection of almost 20,000 titles. Not only will it be a one-stop destination for books, but also convene writing and theatre workshops, and storytelling sessions. The founders, Sidharth and Shambhavi Pansari, are committed to making it a space where ideas are engaged and learning is valued.<\/p><p>The decor will simply blow anyone&#8217;s mind. The unique architecture has helped create 25% more space and merchandise &#8211; while the store is 50% smaller in area. Designed like a maze of steps the experience is incredible for a book lover &#8211; like being on a treasure hunt for books. A Must visit for all book-lovers and architecture lovers.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ACoAAAWNv84BxmnVG5lor8wJZgKf5FYK5HZ0Br8\" data-attribute-index=\"4\" data-entity-type=\"MINI_PROFILE\">Sidharth Pansari<\/a>, Chief StoryTeller of STORY once said while sharing his vision for the brand, &#8220;This store is the story of my life. We named it &#8216;STORY&#8217; because we believe that everything has a story, every book, every movie, every picture, every photograph has a story. Book stores always adds great value to our lives, art and culture. I can assure you that STORY will become the pilgrimage of the book lovers across age groups. We will bring new value with facilities and services that will make STORY a grand destination not only for the Kolkatans but even tourists.&#8221;<\/p><p>The inauguration ceremony was attended by Kolkata Mayor and Minister of Urban Development, Firhad Hakim; former Bidhannagar Mayor, Sabyasachi Dutta; and filmmaker Arindam Sil. Hakim reminisced how he frequented the store ever since it was Crossword. \u201cWhen the second Harry Potter book came out, my daughter demanded that she wanted the first copy, and I queued up outside from 4am in knee-deep water, just to buy it for her. I saw Crossword evolve into STORY, and become the one-stop place for rare titles. Reading is an addiction that heightens creativity, and we need more STORYs to promote reading,\u201d he smiled.<\/p><p>A huge draw for readers will be the 4000 sq ft space, stacked with books and goodies. Apart from personalised assistants who will guide shoppers on the perfect book for them, the store also has comfy reading chairs to peruse through the titles. \u201cWe loved the designs of European libraries and wanted to bring that architectural concept to Kolkata with STORY. We want families to come here and spend time. To enable that, our collection will appeal to both children and adults,\u201d said Shambhavi Pansari, business director, STORY.<\/p><p>One of the primary goals of STORY is to introduce children to the joy of reading in a hyper digital world. The store plans to do this through a three-year membership programme, where members can avail exclusive discounts on workshops for Rs 1,100, and a 20% discount on books above Rs 200. Additionally, those who join the program in the first month will be given a gift voucher of Rs 250.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
