unable to select between two comma and A word using regex

I have a text like 

 aparna mall, indore, mahavir road <br>Map

I want to select " mahavir road " that is between , and <br>Map. Because i have so many such lines,

I tried ,(.*)<br>Map

it selects 

     , indore, mahavir road <br>Map

i want to to select only from the last comma

how to use regex to select. Also any good link with examples of regex.

Use ungreedy notation:

.*,(.*?)<br>Map

or 

,([^,]*)<br>Map

The last will match a comma an capture every thing that is not a comma before <br>Map
