I lived in Chembur in the 1960's with my family. We would walk to the movie sets at Chembur and watch all of the activity. We watched and met Raj Kapoor. He was a very wonderful person and actor. My sister actually had a voice part in Sangam. Can anyone tell me what the name of the movie sets were and if they are still there. Is this the Bollywood that everyone talks about. Can anyone give me some information as I want to bring my daughter to India next year and take her to the parts of India I was fortunate to visit. India has a very special place in my heart and has helped me become the person I am-someone that looks at human beings of the world and not where they are from.

RK Studios in Chembur. Yes the studio is still operating quite successfully. It is used a lot for TV shows now though.
