Vikhroli, Mumbai’s sprawling central suburb is perhaps one of the few places in the city, where nature and development co-exist. On the one hand you have a mini industrial estate set up by the Godrej family, and on the other you have dense mangrove forests, which are home to a variety of flora and fauna. In an attempt to provide a glimpse of old Vikhroli and how it was developed by the Godrej family over a period of time, the Godrej Archives is holding an exhibition in Vikhroli between May 26 and June 26 from 8:40 am to 6 pm.
