Apple shares images from Apple BKC grand opening in Mumbai, India

Apple has opened the doors to Apple BKC — the iPhone maker’s first store in India, with images showing the store’s grand opening on Tuesday, where Apple CEO Tim Cook and company VP Deirdre O’Brien welcomed guests to the flagship store located at the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) mall in Mumbai.

The new store, which is officially open now, features a triangular handcrafted timber ceiling that extends beyond the glass façade to the underside of the exterior canopy, reflecting the unique geometry of the store.

Upon entering the store, customers are greeted by two stone walls and a 14-meter-long stainless steel staircase connecting the ground level and the cantilevered mezzanine.
