Indian art now sells for millions of dollars at galleries and exhibitions around the world. No trip to Mumbai is complete without a visit to the top art galleries.

Some of the most popular ones are On My Own, frequented by the city’s style-setters, and Bombay Electric, which has a mind-boggling collection of handicrafts and jewellery. Also, don't forget to check out Obaitamu, a fabulous boutique with Japanese aesthetics.
