Discover the forgotten movie halls of Grant Road as you set out with city historian Rafique Baghdadi on a heritage walk through this south-central Mumbai neighbourhood that once boasted of 19 cinema halls that ran to packed houses
While the city might be the nucleus of the Indian film industry, several cinema halls that were landmarks in their heyday, decades ago, lie forgotten today. In fact, the brilliant facades of 19 such theatres will be the focus of this walk at Grant Road organised by Alliance Francaise, this Sunday.
Revisit these centres of glamour with film critique and city historian Rafique Baghdadi, where once unending queues of people turned mere films into jubilee hits.
