It is a great experience !! You Will find here Indias various languages full length movies... History of cinema, history of legendary persons of cinema, cameras, instruments and and what not ?!! Film/cinema 🎥 related a huge collection and information !!! It is inaugurated by Honorable prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji

This is a beautiful place to know more about films and the history of film industry. It consists of two buildings out of which one is an old structure and the other is new construction of 4storey.The infrastructure is very well developed and it is less crowded as compared to other museums but it is a worth to visit museum.

Good place to explore our Indian cinema world from begin to now.Its unbelievable experience. I really loved it. Here I am sharing some pictures for you.

Informative, exhaustive, impressive. Renovated, restored and reopened for public in January, 2019, Film Museum is a delight and a must visit for all cinema lovers. It showcases the evolution of Cinema in general, right from the Lumiere Brothers to the evolution of Indian Cinema, the expansion of it, evolution of Bollywood and Regional Cinema. The museum is divided into the old heritage building which is of two stories and the new structure of 4 stories. While the heritage building an entire route to take to be able to cover the journey of cinema in the right flow, even the new building works better if covered in reverse order of floors, 4,3,2,1.The staff is plenty and cooperative as well. They help around in understanding what you can touch what you cant. A lot of old cameras and artifacts are kept for people and some of it can be used and some cant and this is where the floor staff helps you.The museum has interactive section as well, you can edit a film, record a song, add some vfx and understand how it was done before and how its done now. Its extremely interesting!You need at least about 3 hours if you want to cover the entire museum at length and a good pair of shoes to walk around all of it.If not for anything, you should at least make a visit to marvel at the architecture of the heritage building. Its breathtakingly beautiful and you wont be able to stop yourself from clicking away.

The museum is so well designed (specially the new extension) and so informative. It has everything from the history of bollywood to cinema in general.Their new building has all technology as it has evolved and a lot of interactive exhibits. I really like how well everything is spaced so that it doesnt feel intimidating as museums can.The best section was the virtual reality section, with only interactive exhibits.

Excellent exhibits capture many aspects of the magic of cinema. One could easily spend half a day learning about the history and people involved with Indian cinema. You can also see the cameras, sound gear, editing, and other cinema equipment used through the decades, and learn how they operate. A Childrens Film Studio lets kids experience aspects of movie making.Note that cell phone photography is permitted (no flash), but taking photos with other types of cameras is strictly prohibited. The website mentions a 4 p.m. film showing, but dont count on this--the projector wasnt working when I visited. My main complaint is that the foreigners admission is Rp. 500; thats 25 times the Indian price! Children up to age 12 are free. Staff recommend starting with the history exhibits in the historic Gulshan Mahal, then proceeding the the four floors of exhibits in the towering glass-walled new building.

A must visit for movie enthusiasts like me, but if youre not youll sure be after visiting this museum! Here youll be able to see how Indian Cinema evolved from black and white silent films to todays vfx movies!!!! Overall a very good experience! I would like to appreciate all the people who contributed towards this museum.

Entry fee isRs 20 for Indian citizenRs 500 for foreignersTiming is from 11am-5pmIf you like history of films this is a must place. Have a full day reserved. Its huge and elaborative.Dedicated zones for all genres of films and technkquesKids and adults will enjoy alike.Its neat clean and tidy.

Great place for a cine freak. Best to visit in the morning because it is quite big. First visit the Gulshan Mahal and then go the main building. Currently the place is less crowded because most people dont know, but Im sure it will increase. Anyone learning film making must visit this place. Its only ₹ 20 for Indians and ₹ 500 for foreigners. It opens at 11am and closes at 6pm in the evening. It remains closed on Monday.

This is a great place to learn about the history of Indian cinema, the exhibits are amazing, takes you down memory lane on various old movies. A must visit place, its well maintained and the entry is just rs. 20. A gem of a place to visit.

It was overall awesome experience. Got to much knowledge about Indian cinema. Also quite impressed by infrastructure.

Those who are interested in cinema its a must place to visit. Very well developed and kept. Hope visitors will not damage such a wonderful, informative place.

One of the lesser known hidden jewel of South Mumbai. Situated in huge campus in contrast to lesser impressive facade on Pedar road campus. Good mix of display in heritage building and 5 storied dispays in a modern building with glass facade telling narrative of Indian cinema with photos, pictures, video clips, documetaries, old models of cameras and technical equipment, section on Mahatma Gandhiji is impressive, children live interactive displys...in all great job Films Division!

It has a very elaborate and extensive space of display that takes you into the world of Hindi cinema. Impressed with its variety and inclusivity. The presence of audio-visual guides at every step and level makes it an enriching experience. If you want to complete the entire museum, make sure you have a whole day to yourself. It is a must visit for all Bollywood Buffs!

Very beautiful building , well designed and maintained and it will take a day to completely understand the history and evolution of Cinema.

The best museum Ive ever visited. It contains almost everything you can imagine related to Indian cinema. In the other building you can even get the experience of recording, directing, sound mixing, VFX and many more.The original poster are there. With the vintage cameras and all the equipments. The architect was superb. The staff was corporative.You get all this amazing exclusive by giving a fee of ₹20.The only problem with this place is that, this peace of art is not very famous hence the visitors turnout is very low.

Very informative place to visit, never thought how complex procedure film needs.

I was told its closed for renovation. Beautiful building. Innovative idea

Best place to visit for films lovers 💕💞

Best to visit and nice to see all ancient instruments.

This is a must visit place in Mumbai. Whether you follow or do not follow Indian Cinema is not important as this place is a treasure of information on Indian Cinema. The exhibits are in 2 buildings. There are sections related to Indian cinema history, faculties of filmmaking, influential indian filmmakers, cameras, sound & editing equipments, VFX effects, childrens section and also a special section on Cinema & Mahatma Gandhi.If you want to see it in detail, youll need a full day. It is extremely useful for film researcher and students. Much of the information is already added with exhibits. There are couple of Cinema halls too.Staff is helpful in explaining.

Nice place to learn Cinema and explore the old techniques of Film Making. must visit if u r in any way involved in film making or a student of film making. Good to get kids as well since there are some fun sections too. The new bldg is well made wyt a cafeteria on the top floor. Only downside is that its very far from the nearest station i.e. Grant road. About 1852m from Grant Road station. U can either walk the distance or take a cab for ur convenience.

Very interesting and must visit place in Mumbai for me

To look back over something for evaluation or memory. ... The review of a book or movie often evaluates the work in question based on its strong and weak points, sometimes ending with a recommendation (or a dismissal). Before a big test, you might want to review (brush up on) your notes.

Its a superlative place for people who would love to know everything about Indian cinema.From start of the Indian cinema till now, this cinema showcases the evolution of cinema in India.

Must visit place for filmography fans. Lots of things to learn from here. History of Indian cinema. If you are preparing to visit here make sure have minimum 7-8hrs time because this place is too good.

It was my first time, but i get lot of informatio.

Here you can see the equipments using in Film making since from Independence.

A must watch for all the technical crew of the film industry... Even the producers

This place to get insightful knowledge about complete film making and as well the history about Indian cinema

Good place nice development, go with 3 to 4 hours in hand , will open from Tuesday 22 January 2019Suggest time 11am to 5pm.Note this place is closed on Mondays

It was inaugurated by Honble Prime Minister of India (Narendra Modi) on 19th January, 2019.

Its very nice place to see the old technology of making film..its take nearly 3.00 hours to see...

This is one sea of technical knowledge and artifacts where you would want to drown yourself.

It was huge and really good. Everything was explained in detail and they didnt miss anything. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it takes time to explore the while place and its only open till 6pm. So we had to go through the last two parts quickly. Anyways the staff was very friendly and guided us through the whole thing. I was there with my grandparents and it was tough for them to walk but the hospitality made us ignore that fact. Excellent Job at the Museum.

Can easily spend hours here. Exhibits cover evolution of cinema across India, the technology used in each area and has interested tidbits of film making all over. Predominantly dedicated to Bollywood, but also covers a few key people and contributions from other regional film industries

Enjoyed ....I and Amitabh Pandit

Amazing place to spend quality time with family and friends by gaining knowledge of entertainment world and its history. Clean and hygienic. Courteous staff. Parking area is available. Location view is amazing. We had fun. Loved the place and worth for 20rs. I would recommend everyone to visit atleast once.

Mumbai means Bollywood.This national museum of Indian cinema is inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India, Mr Narendra Bhai Modi.It is fully dedicated for the contribution of Indian cinemas. There are lots of memories and monuments here.

The place is also not just laced with decades old equipment but also offers the visitors a hands on experience of the modern technology used in Indian cinema.It will typically take 2.5-3.5 hrs to explore the entire museum depending on your zeal.

Very well thought of and executed. A must see for people interested in history of Indian cinema the art form and its technical advancements. Senior citizens fond of Indian cinema must visit for a trip down memory lane. A fun family outing for all.Should add a cafeteria to the museum premises instead of on the 4th floor of another bldg.

I visited this place in June. Its not popular because its newly built and recently inaugurated by our PM Modiji. People love Indian cinema must visit this place. It has engraved history of Bollywood and the world class museum standard.

Its an interactive museum so less chance of feeling bored.

Listen to songs on gramophone as well as headphones.

Every person on this world or at least younger generation must visit and learn about the times of entertainment back then and should be thankful to those veterans because of whom the entertainment industry stands today where it is! Their inventions then has been our mode of entertainment for decades. From the first camera to various dimensional movies we have grown so much. A must must visit place for everyone !! 😊💐

Its a place for movie enthusiastics, very well maintained. The staff are very polite and curtious. Some of the exhibits were not working, due to manhandling by visitors. Which the management should address. Over all a good experience..

Informative and interesting. Those interested in history and development of Indian cinema should visit. And its not only about bollywood.

The older part of the museum walks you through the history of Indian Cinema and the new building showcases exhibits to help you better understand filmmaking. (The kids part was especially cool.)

Independent of whether you are studying drama or not, every Ody should visit it once to look back into the history of India. It was very informative and helpful.

Absolutely world class museum, great exhibits, presented in a very attractive and interactive way. On par with the best museums in the world. Just need to add a museum shop and a cafe and it will be perfect.

A very good place to learn about the history of filmmaking in India. Very well preserved artifacts and good information. You need a full day to view all the floors and exhibits. Entry closes at 5pm.Closed on Mondays and public holidays.
