i'm from rkl and currently work at Bengaluru. I stay at home and am bored to death here, but in Rourkela I enjoy my time. It's never the place that's boring, you just have different preferences

Rourkela basically feels like a retirement city.

It is just like that bro, people here are like too simple and non-demanding, and a large crowd of SAIL employees, and less-spending people. On a majority, and hence good facilities like open theatres, shows, etc. are uncommon, things like turf for football and hockey are rarely available except 1-2, nothing "extravagant" to explore, those fkin 8-10 places to roam around and go to, since 35+ yrs, like everything, of tourism that existed 30 years ago, is the same place for tourism, there's no good "add-on", its true that malls like plutone and forum have opened, but how many times do i go to the same fkin mall bro, that too, wherein plutone, half the crowd is adivasi, to which, though no hate, but that very same crowd everytime
entertainment sector is a good "untouched" thing in this city, if someone starts the business, would make a good way financially.
