There was NO sound in movies back in 1920. The first commercially made film was shown in New York in 1923. The first Indian film with sound was "Aalam Ara" and it was released in India in about 1931. The cars shown in this video are of the era of about 1930-1940. This proves clearly that the film was made around 1935-1945, but definitely not in 1920 as it claims. Yes, the video is great to see Bombay of those days of about 1935-1945.
This was made in 1937.

You mean as described by the Americans. James A Fitzpatrick was a famous American narrator, and a movie producer. Cool video however.

The Taj Mahal Hotel was also built by the Parsis! India owes a lot to them.

Proud to say that Bombay is still cosmopolitan...and this comes from a true-blue bombayite, born and raised...:)
