The festival of lights is incomplete without Kandils or paper lanterns. We take you to Mumbai’s biggest lantern market fondly called the Kandil galli. Every year during Diwali, this street in Mahim gets decked up by colorful lanterns. This stretch of pavement is transformed into a magical stretch resplendent with sparkling lights. For the kandil makers here, kandil making is not merely a business but a tradition passed on from generation to generation. Watch the video to know what makes this lantern market so special.
