Whenever we are in Bandra, for our shopping trails, King Kite Centre manages to grab the eye, thanks to its colourful kites.

The shop has been at the same location for 60 years, when owner Salim Qureshi's father came to the city from Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, and set up a fruit shop. "Once, we let out our shop on rent to a kite seller for 15 days and he made good business. That's when we decided to sell kites along with fruits," shares Qureshi. While today it's all kites, during season, they also sell mangoes.
