I want to start game development and thought to work on a gaming engine like Unreal Engine or Unity Engine and thought of building a real life game around me. Is it legal to build a game on a real city architecture? I live in India.

Consult with a competent lawyer in your area to avoid a lawsuit (an example can be found in the link below).
Note: "Is it legal" questions are not best suited to the stack overflow format.

This was a big discussion back in the day and usually the answer is no, your not allowed to, but consult a lawyer familiar with this issue. β Katianie Jul 05 '18 at 13:23
