Miscellaneous
Bandra (located in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India) is a place where creativity is a way of life, and where legends like M.F. Hussain, Dilip Kumar, and Madhubala once lived — and where icons like Sachin Tendulkar and Amitabh Bachchan still call home.
Bandra feels like the heartbeat of Mumbai — vibrant, full of dreams, and always buzzing with new ideas. When it came to naming our store, it felt natural to honor that spirit.
