Great studio tour with Sushil
A couple days ago we did a studio tour with Sushil and it was really amazing! We visited live production sites, lots of different sets, learned about sound techniques, typical Bollywood music and dances and also about the Bollywood film history and culture. The whole tour was really exciting and gave a very authentic insight into the film production. We visited other studies in LA already, but this was much more interesting and personalized! Sushil was fun, friendly and always ready to answer our questions! Thank you once again for the memorable tour on our last day in Mumbai !

Bollywood Dreams
Another good tour with Mumbai Dream Tours. It takes place in SJ Studios, which I believe is one of only two studios within the city which permits tours. Located in Andheri, it is quite a trek if you’re staying in Colaba, allow at least 75 minutes by car. You can make your own way, but I booked a transfer and guide through Mumbai Dream Tours. Both my guide, Rakesh, and driver, Anam were excellent. The tour began with us witness to live filming of a couple of TV shows, followed by a look around some sets. After that, we spent time in a dubbing studio, finishing off with a Bollywood dance performance in a minuscule studio. Our group was around 10 strong. The tour is a bit of fun and lasts around 3 hours.

Amazing experience!!!
SJ Studio tour with Dinesh was amazing. He explained everything in detail, showed love sets, let us take pictures with actors and also on the various sets available for films and tv series. The Bollywood dances and videos were awesome and made us a part of presentations and performances. We especially enjoyed the karaoke activity in the recording studios & taking pictures with props next to the statues of various star actors. Thanks Dinesh and the SJ Studio team. We will be back soon!!!

Unforgettable experience
The team was super. They did me a great favor by being able to attend the tour after the date, for very specific and justified reasons. The guide Dinesh was the best. A personalized tour. Explaining and taking photos and videos in all parts of the studio. I highly recommend it. You go through the sets watching live how they perform the entire series, there is the recorder, there are the actors rehearsing, recording, and they are also very nice that you can take photos with them. The dance area, with 3 beautiful traditional music, the clothes, in addition to doing a little dance with them. And for Karaoke lovers they have an incredible sound and recording studio. I recommend the tour, the company and the guide Dinesh to everyone. Thank you all so much for the incredible morning.

Beautiful Bollywood!!
WOW!! So much more than I was expecting. We saw live action filming several scenes for different productions. We got to dress in costume and play act on sets with props. We saw dancing shows and got to dance with the performers(well they danced I just shook my body like an idiot). We got to interact with writers directors actors and crew. We sang songs in the sound room to see how the pros do it. Dinesh was a great guide that made it all fun and exciting! Everyone was very kind and welcoming.

Bollywood tour experience
Dinesh led us through the tour and he was a wonderful host. He explained/showed everything with great patience and diligence. It was fun watching shooting scenes. The dance performance was full of energy. Only I felt the fee was a bit on the higher side for a tour such as this
