Updated list of gay cruising places in Chennai
Last updated on 15th December 2016
Being a single gay man in this city, that is unafraid of exploring the city's deepest and darkest corners, here is a list of places from my experiences where you stand a real high chance of meeting the man you'd like to indulge in:
1. Electric Trains:
Railway stations used to be a buzzing place of male sexual activity. However, with the recent events and the new Government, things have drastically changed and the platforms are not safe anymore to indulge in any kind of mild or hardcore sexual activity. So, if someone is telling you Guindy station, St. Thomas Mount station, Villivakkam station, Trisulam station, then they are referring to 2009 and not 2016. Do NOT risk going and searching for men in these places.
The trains however haven't changed all that much. The vendors compartment used to be a place of high sexual activity in the nights but now that has changed too. If you need to pick up men, go to the first compartment and start near the door. Always works.
2. Krishnaveni theatre:
The old, almost in ruins theatre opposite T.Nagar busstand is still a place where men of the really local class go for a blowjob. This place is feeming with sexual activity especially in the evenings. Beware of the management that sends some local goons to beat up people indulging in sex to keep a check. It is not too often and the guys who come with sticks are generally very dumb. They look around for 5 minutes and then go away. They're pretty useless. You can continue your action.
Caution: The place is very unclean and sickening. They guys who come aren't classy either. However, if you don't care about all that once in a while, go for it.
3. Ramapuram Signal:
There is a shrub near Jayant Tech Park and Ramapuram signal. That shrub is still a hub for all sorts of action. Not really much hindrances. Watch out for policemen in the booth at the signal but they generally don't even bother.
4. Ground opposite International airport:
In the nights, the ground opposite to airport suddenly springs into action. There is a line of taxis waiting to pick up people from the airport in the night flights. They are generally horny in the nights and really won't mind some action. The best thing to do is, talk to them, get into the cab and go off somewhere else. It is not recommended to have sex in the ground or the car at that place itself.
5. Streets near Satyam cinemas:
After it is dark, the narrow streets around Satyam cinemas & even between Escape and Satyam is an ideal point to pick up men. In fact, a lot of times, when I finish watching a movie at around 11:30 pm in the night and walk on those roads, lots of 2-wheelers have stopped and men have approached me. I haven't felt really comfortable at that time and declined. However, if you are a daring person and won't mind some risk, check it out.
Caution: Do not carry any valuables. Carry no/little cash.
6. 100 ft. road - Velachery
The T-junction near Phoenix Market city is a place where a lot of auto drivers and cab drivers assemble in the nights. The chances of you getting action are really really high. Night time around 1 am when movies generally get over, just go and stand there for sometime. They will start giving you all kinds of signals such as watching porn on their phones and flashing their phones at you, scratching their dick etc. It is quite an ideal place for pickups. Watch out for the cops.
7. Nungambakkam area
Sterling road and in and around Loyola college is a place where a lot of red light activity happens. I have seen it several times but never dared to go and walk on those roads. However, the nights are a good time to explore that place and I am told, you would run into really good looking men.
8. The Park
The bar in the The Park is a place where most Tamil movie actors hunt for men/boys. A lot of cine industry people are bisexual and they pickup boys from 'The Pasha'. A lot of my friends have been approached by leading actors(through their managers) from the bar. It is upto you to risk it.
9. Pallavaram-Thoraipakkam ring road
It may not be the safest of places, but I have just had to walk in these places in the nights. Vehicles would slow down, 2-wheelers would stop, lorries and trucks would stop. Everybody would want to consume you. I am quite tough looking and a stare is enough to shoo them away. If you are gutsy enough and won't mind an ocasional fist fight, go for it.
10. DLF - 5th Block - Washroom
The washrooms in the foodcourt of DLF are places of massive action after 6 pm on weekdays. Enough said. Check it out.
11. Art festivals
Madras is the cultural hub of Chennai. As unusual as it sounds, concert halls mainly for dance are such an opportunity to seek some male action. Try out the Music Academy washroom, main halls at Krishna Gana Sabha, Narada gana Sabha & all those places mainly during dance concerts and 8/10 men may be gay!:) :P I have had success in such places.
That's all for now. Will update later.
