For Making New Friends
Why Stranger Mingle Exists
We're solving a problem millions of Indians face: feeling lonely in a crowded city.
Making friends after college shouldn't be this hard.
You're Not Alone in Feeling Alone
Moved to a new city? Lost touch with college friends? Working from home with no social life? You're surrounded by millions, yet eating dinner alone. We get it—because we've been there too.
Real Connections, Not Online Chats
Friendships happen when you're doing something together, not swiping through profiles. We create real spaces—chai circles, treks, game nights—where genuine bonds form naturally.
Safe Spaces for Everyone
We don't judge by caste, class, colour, or background. Zero tolerance for harassment. Verified members only. Small groups where everyone matters. This is where India makes friends the right way.
How It Works
Pick Your Event
Browse weekend events—casual meetups, treks, cultural walks. Choose what excites you. Events are priced fairly to keep things sustainable.
Just Show Up
Come alone—80% of people do. We handle the awkward part with structured ice-breakers. Small groups (25-30 people) mean real conversations.
Build Real Friendships
Exchange numbers. Make plans. Show up to the next event. Friendships take time, but they start with showing up once.
Trusted by Indians
"I joined this group with my friend and initially we were just 2 of us. But slowly we started meeting new people and now we have a group of 10-15 people who regularly hang out together. It's a great way to meet new people and make friends."
"I met Trishul through my another friend and now he is my good friend. I wanted to meet people naturally. The board game night was so much fun, and I didn't have to worry about forcing conversation."
"I'm working in Bengaluru since last 5 years and i haven't met many people. This group helped me to connect with new people and make friends."
A Community Built on Trust
We verify every member to keep our events safe and comfortable. We have a zero-tolerance policy for harassment. Our goal is to create the safest spaces in India to meet strangers.
