The nicest old man in Bandra

This is a house right next to Shahrukh Khans on Bandstand. It's owned by Keku Gandhi, a wonderfully kind man. They sure don't make them like they used to.

He gave me a tour of his house that is full of history, that of Parsee culture and art. I was also lucky enough to get a lesson about some of Bandra's history. He himself is an art restorer and owner of the Chemould art gallery in town.

He also took me to the Parsee sanatorium next door which has a facade like the Buckingham Palace! Who knew? I got a sneak peek at the beautiful gardens and library inside as well.
