Description

Get ready for an exciting adventure into the world of Indian movies! We'll take you to a Bollywood studio. You'll see where they make TV shows and films, and it's like stepping into a magical world. You can explore the cool sets from famous movies and learn all about how Bollywood movies are made. We'll start your Private adventure by picking you up from your hotel, and then we'll head to the lively Bollywood studio. There, you'll discover all the interesting things about how Indian movies are created. You can walk around the studio lot, check out sets from big movies, and your guide will explain how they make these fantastic Bollywood films. The most exciting part is when you get to watch a real movie or TV show being filmed right in front of you. It's like being part of the action! Then, you'll be treated to a special Bollywood dance performance. You can even join in if you want to dance along. And if we have enough time, and the actors are up for it, you might even get a chance to take a picture with them! Visit a real audio editing room to experience the life of a voice-over artist and have fun with Karaoke, where you can even record your own song. After visiting the Studio head towards the Kanheri Caves, located deep within the lush greenery of Sanjay Gandhi National Park, one of Asia's prominent national parks. These caves are a magnificent architectural achievement, with all 109 of them meticulously carved out of a massive basaltic rock outcrop. The smaller caves, known as viharas, served as resting places for monks, while the larger caves, called chaityas, are adorned with intricately carved Buddhist sculptures and were used for worship. The drive to Kanheri Caves takes approximately 30 minutes. Relax in the comfort of an air-conditioned car until you arrive at Sanjay Gandhi National Park, where the caves are situated. Your knowledgeable guide will lead you to five of the most significant caves and provide insights into their historical and spiritual significance. Inside the main hall stands a towering 7-meter-high figure of Lord Buddha, surrounded by a colonnade of 34 beautifully carved pillars. One of the most distinctive features is the eleven-headed Avalokiteshwara. Additionally, you'll find about 100 inscriptions in various scripts, including Brahmi, Devnagri, Pallavi, and Sanskrit. At the conclusion of your tour, return to your Mumbai accommodation, carrying with you cherished memories of a day spent exploring the Kanheri Caves, a remarkable blend of history, spirituality, and natural beauty within the bustling city of Mumbai.
