Well i went to pondicherry not with lots of hopes but yeah few at least. Heard a lot about french colony, food, shopping and beach ofcourse.
but when i went there i found that there is not much to do in pondicherry. i could visit all attractions in less than a day and didn't find anything that interesting which can hold me back.
food was ok. there are couple of good french restaurants but apart from that nothing much.
beaches are quite dirty. we went to aaruville beach and it was in worst condition. we couldn't even walk on the beach and had to return back to hotel.
most of the hotels are also not well maintained. you can find few good hotels on marine drive but very few good hotels as well..
overall i wouldn't recommend pondicherry for people who loves to explore new places and learn new things. its very quite place may be you can visit pondi to take a break or so. but don't expect much out of it.
