Christmas cheer is here and it shows in the collective effort of the residents of Marina Enclave at Jankalyan Nagar in Malad West. The residential landmark is drawing attention because of a 46.7-foot-tall Christmas tree, made of empty, green, plastic, aerated drink bottles. This tree has been placed near the podium and swimming pool of the sprawling complex.

Joseph Kappla, resident, said of the tree effort, “We are aiming for a record. We learnt that a 32.5-foot-tall Christmas tree of plastic bottles in Chennai made it to the Asia Book of Records and some other record books.” Ravindra Shanbhag, who pushed Marina residents to aim for a record, stated, “I told the others, why not break the earlier record with our creation?”
