The unique cosmopolitan nature of Bandra offers a superb cross-pollination of cultures and religions that exist in harmony, resulting in creating an ideal atmosphere for creativity. It establishes as the ideal setting for writers, poets, journalists, actors, models, TV. Stars, fashion designers and musicians. Yes, when we also talk about the bollywood fraternity; the three Khans, be it Salman, Sharukh, Aamir, Rekha, Rishi Kapoor, Deepika Padukone the list is never ending…reside in Bandra as it becomes their first “home sweet home” choice. We are well acquainted with Sharukh’s ‘Mannat’ a landmark by itself. On the other hand, Andheri also comprises of lot of producers and directors, but when given a choice they would always want to upgrade to Bandra!

Bandra is a plush suburb located in north-west of Mumbai. It is called the “Queen of the Suburbs” over a period of years. Bandra is the hub and becomes the heart of the city of Mumbai, connecting to South and North Mumbai via its newly constructed Bandra Sea-Link, a major infrastructural project opened on June 30, 2009 created to ease traffic. The Bandra Kurla Complex is the business hub of the city and its proximity has further enhanced the already high property value of Bandra. Bandra, the address by itself becomes very reputable!

Bandra is a 'world' within a city. One of the most 'hep’ place to be in, it can boast of auditoriums, multiplex theatres, malls, super markets, 5 star hotels, great jogging tracks, scenic promenades, pubs and restaurants. It is a party area for all the party mongers. To satisfy your culinary tastes, Bandra boasts of some of the best multi-cuisine restaurants at different locations. There is a new food outlet opening and closing down every other month. With good facilities and ambience being offered, it’s a great place to hang around with family and friends.

The history speaks that during late 60s and 70s, taking about the real estate pricing the land was cheap and our bollywood segment acquired plots to construct lavish and spacious bungalows. We can still recall times when there were large stretches of green, bungalows and villas that were surrounded by neat little gardens. Bandra has lot of green and very close to nature; the place has character within itself. There are few prime locations unlike areas which are concrete jungles in Bandra. Few Top Notch Areas In Bandra:

As the saying goes, “You can take a Bandraite out of Bandra, but you cannot take Bandra out of a Bandraite or ex-Bandraite.” Staying here even for a short while, makes you want to return again - even plan to settle down here. Today, the fast growing NRI and foreigner population is ample proof that this suburb is accepted as being the best that money can buy. This co-existence of apparent contradictions is an uncanny vibrancy of what Bandra is all about. Viva la Bandra!
