- Bombay India on foot and by Taxi. Beep Beep City I call it as I have never heard so many car horns tooting for no apparent reason unless it means I am coming... everyone out of the way! My vid cam was quite a novilty in 1985 and I would quickly atttact a croud if I stayed in one spot for a few minutes filming with it, so I had to keep moving or get boxed in. People were curious or wanted to be in the video :-) Hotel Nagina if I remember correctly.

No mobile phone no internet no whatsup that time 1985 is golden time i miss her
Probably the oldest vlogger from Mumbai was a foreigner
Even i feel the same but it's because of the things in it feel old as we have and seen better and newer things. Video quality can be a parameter there too and yeah 30-40 years down the line 2020 will feel the same as of 1985 for the future kids. It goes on.
It's not a vlog dickhead, vlog involves the video creator.
@@burnolltd.9808 watch it again asshole
Correct
He is Harald Baldr's grandpa
I am really curious to know the intention of the person taking the video. Someone shooting so casually in the 80's is such a rare thing. I really envy his passion. Thanks for uploading it for a larger audience. It really made my day. I was born in 1998, but viewing this was as amusing as it would be to a 80's born. It was like a time travel to the past.
I would say the same 🤗🤗 I was born in 1989
I was born on 20th February 1998 in India
Not that rare. Checkout Gilbert Arcienega's videos from 80s.
....😊....congrats....the person who have made n posted this 'live experience' of world famous streets of Bombay(1985)...n this video takes u back to original n early eras of Bombay, what to do is Mumbai....any streets of this world famous city is just 'busy' with traffic n people walking endless on these streets either walking/travelling anytime.....most important, those old age cars(yellow taxis) can be seen in which even I was lucky to travel during my teenage......this was the thrill n actual life of average Indians....thanks.... 👍....
This is projector video recording not a digital one.
I was born in the wrong generation. This is where I feel I belonged.
What is your age now iwas born 79 so. I was six years in 85
Why my cild God bless you
@@lakshmivaidyanathan2254 me too bro..
Me too bro......
Still to be born 🤣
This footage refreshed my silent memories..felt emotional while watching, as I was 10 in 1985, residing in Chawl near Worli Naka in Bombay (Mumbai). I feel South Mumbai is quite same now but rest everything has changed a lot. It is now super populated, filthy, traffic everywhere and even people are less friendly. Back then though the average standard of living was bad but it was very cosmopolitan, more accommodating, more freedom, more safe and had more friendly people. I left Mumbai few years back but still feels as a Mumbaikar everywhere. Thanks Sir for sharing this beautiful nostalgic video !
indiansouls i born in 1986 in worli naka i spent my childhood in worli naka chawl
i was 9 in 1985 and i stayed at bhendibazaar area, really i can recognize each n every area in this video
indiansouls I'm also noshstalgical😿😁 I in amrika now.spek English eat vada pav in anrika.

Absolute. Hatts off.
Yeah bro..... (look like) it was really great time...
Wonderful. This video is s GEM. I was always curious to see the 70s and 80s of Indian Streets. This man's thought was much ahead of his time, he probably didn't know that there would be create a trend of vlogging in future. I wish to travel back to this era. Thanks to the admin for posting this video. Plz bring more such vintage videos. 😀💎
1985 was my first ever visit to Bombay. I was 7 years old. Stayed at the Bombay Port guesthouse in Colaba. I’m 45 now and Bombay is Mumbai and radically different.
Born in 86 I love the 90's life was so simple and fun back then
This time our great Kishore Kumar was alive, maybe recording some masterpieces or relaxing at home or doing concerts. Less bullshits, easy life cannot say better life that depends. Less traffic,so many things.....
I was born a year later....
Nyways good to see classics like this.
Maybe in 2055 that is 35 years from now lot will change and our current videos will be classic.
Many roaming, walking are old, dead, migrated....
No globalisation so swadeshi products, local goods were mostly available. TV, AC, Refrigerator were prized possession.
No internet, no social media, no cell phones, etc etc......
So many thoughts......
Nothing has changed ! Except cars, cellphones and fashion ! Mumbai is still the same in 2020 !! Wow !!
No two wheelers on road, No mobile phones in hand...
The noise of the city sounded soothing back then
This was the Bombay which i used to love. Some of the sweet memories came back.I was born during the end of 80s, Saw the city before it changed after 2000. Thank u for this video sir. Purani yaadien taaza Hogaye.
what i there to love there? i see poverty, people shitting on the streets, living in roadside and you are loving it lol
Nothing's changed except that gear liver in taxi.
Me too pinto. My name is also pinto in my home
Hair style different
Mumbai really very change
Everything is changed except the day n night...!!
Ek din subhe jaaguor dekhu ki whi 1980 wala waqt chal rha he ...Kaash esa ek rooz eya..
I remember walking down these streets in the 80's ..:) Rewind..:)
I was there in '89 and this takes me right back to that awesome craziness lol. Only thing missing is the smells of Bombay :)
Thank you so much for sharing this video.. The road that you have captured is from mohammed ali road to VT station and then fountain area to museum.. And the back through crawford market to bhendi bazar..
You took me down memory lane.. You have mentioned this video is from 1985.. 😊 I was in the 6th standard that time.. I stayed in Mazagoan and grew up in these area where you have done the video..
Those fiat taxis , Lambretta and Bajaj scooters on the road.. Best shot you have taken is the Yezdi bike with a side car and the whole family riding on it.. It just brought tears in mi eyes because my dad had the same bike with side car and we use go riding on it.. Cozy was the name of the company who use to at that time fit side cars on motorcycles and scooters..
Also the street vendors from VT station to fountain were my regular visit to buy things..
The double decker BEST buses..
Thank you very much again for uploading this amazing nostalgic video...
Those ambassador cars and Bajaj chetak scooters made my day just awesome 🌺💯👌👍
It's humbling and downright awe inspiring for me to witness the significance of this video. My dad was in Mumbai somewhere in the city while this man was filming in 1985. Crazy for me to think about but so cool to get a glimpse of what my father witnessed throughout his time in this beautifully chaotic city he once called home.
Thank you for the upload, it truly does mean a lot.
Chawls been replaced by tall towers and I miss those premier taxis by which I used to go home from school sometimes, even the victorias are one of my childhood memories ..thanks for taking us in those times.
I was 25 years old then, used to live in Bandra, drive my father's Premier Padmini around town, go to Talwalker's gym (Mahim) worked at SEEPZ for TCS.
Left Bombay in 1989 and only visited Mumbai ONCE in this century (2018).
_Could barely recognize the city. I miss the Bandra I grew up in, with cottages everywhere and clean air (when I was a child in the early 70s I would look out at the sea and could see the horizon, today one usually cannot see further than a mile out, the air quality was so bad in 2018 even next to the sea). And after living in the US all these years the traffic and crowds are difficult to handle. I watch these videos with a lot of nostalgia, the past was wonderful especially when you're young 🙂_
Glad u came to india in 1985 n shoot these videos... Many of us don't about that time... I was born in 1988...n it's amazing to Bombay of that time....
I was a teenager in Bombay then. India had won the Benson and Hedges cup in Aus that year. I remember the “Down under India is thunder” banners there. Shastri’s Audi car ride in the stadium after his Champion of Champions award was legendary.
I have never visited Mumbai. Or i have never gone out of kerala,my home state and tamil nadu. But these videos of old years make me nostalgic. I am fond of Videos of old age from anywhere in the world. I make visions of old and new age in my thoughts. Where may be peoples in these videos right now?
I need a time machine...
xactly same though process,i also go in trans like hyponitize condition,thinking all these.
Nice coverage of the city. Happy to see the old city of Bombay featuring the black and yellow Premier Padmini taxis and the BEST buses. 👍👍👍
Bina mobile ka life kitna accha tha😶
No one has a phone in their hands, how much life is there, it will be very comfortable, I was born in that period 1992, I remember my childhood days very much, I wish we would go back to the same era again.
I just don't have words of gratitude to express after watching this video. It took me back to my childhood days. May Almighty God bless you Sir.
Thank you...
At 1985 Mumbai & Shanghai were same but now where is Shanghai & Mumbai still as same. Leaders should come out with some master plan to modernized the city
Mumbai and Shanghai both were poor cities . Shanghai has became a rich City and Mumbai an upper middle income city..
Well, India is a democracy for a start. Mumbai has too many regressive and unnecessary building laws, the building and infrastructure business is riddled with corruption of the highest order, et al
Modernized and globalization destroyed humanity and peaceful life
Shanghai sold its soul, but Mumbai kept its. But not for long, since insecure idiots like you want to build coastal roads and bullshit that takes away the character and legendary heritage, just for short sighted "development". Soon we'll just be a poorer Shanghai
@@milaanvigraham8664 insecurity? The population has increased ten fold .What, you expect the population to just die from coronavirus or something? Lul
I was not even born in 1985. This video time travelled me the city of my dreams, Mumbai Bombay. I wish I was born in 70's era and lived in Mumbai... I love bollywood... Mohd Rafi sab se bhi milta agar main tab ke Era mein paida huwa hota .. aise lagra tha video ko dekh kar ki main khud video bana raha hoon camera se...
Thanks for sharing the video. I had smile on my face throughout while watching it. I was around 8 years old living in Bombay (now it is called Mumbai). Enjoyed seeing the old Bombay of which I have fade memories. It was quite free from vehicular traffic less populated Bombay in those years. Now it is over populated with People and Cars, hardly any space to walk and drive vehicles around. I like the old name of the city "Bombay"! God bless the City and people living in the city.
bom in the 80 s was so good less traffic more space now its all congested one cud reach down town from santacruz in 35 mins have good memories
Wow ive seen this era. Thanks for reconnecting me with it. 🙏
In 85 my dad passed away . Time flew so fast.
rip
And this comment is 5 years old already.
Someone else will probably reply to my comment in a few years. And I'm gonna look back at this comment and say the exact same thing. Time flies.
thank you for the timetravel
Thnk you so much for this video god bless you
Bombay is like mini India & city that never sleeps! Thrilled to see the city in 1985 the year i was born, the person simply captured the city life then as any regular vlogger doing it today. It's the land of opportunities then & now.
Calcutta laughing at a corner
It's a fort area. People were quite consumed in themselves in 80's. No phones, laptops. Still well connected!!
Amazing footage, thanks for sharing!
Great experience living in Mumbai nd the growth is now insane just got a random recommendation truly very ahead of the time
I was only 5 in 1985, but still remember the time in between 1985 to 1990 when I used to travel in that taxi with my family, I use to fight to have that front seat of the taxi, also the double decker bus, use to have those peanuts and bhel puri at chowpaty.... Lovely memories .... No fear - No worries - No mobile phone - For a common man when video camera were used mainly for marriages
Thanks for sharing sir.
me2 was 5 born in feb 80'
Thanks ! Those were the days . Sights and sounds of Bombay in the past brings back many memories
Thank you so much I spend my childhood all the places u shown...
WOOOOOOO I AM FROM KAMATHI PURA, NAGPADA, GRANT ROAD BORN IN 1965😊😊😊😊😊
Oh my God ,unbelievable olden days,lot of memories still vivid
i remember Bombay in the 80s. Good old memories. I was only nine but still remember a lot of the places and sounds. Good times, no cell phones!
तब भी मुंबई भाग रही थी आज भी भाग ही रही हे। बस मंजिल कुछ लोगों को ही मिल पाती हे यहाँ।
Old memories
Never come back again
I love my mumbai ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
38 years later 'Vasanth you are on RUclips ' 😂

Nice old memories, Ambasidor ,Fiat Taxis 🚕 & bajaj scooter Jamana.
Kya time tha ..sab chupchaap walk kar rahe h...aaj dekho earphone laghake khud se hi baat karte h...i love those time.
Chup chaap walk par aapas me log baat karte the. Aaj Kal ki tarah nh. Aur itna traffic aur peen peeen peeeeen. Too crowded, full of traffic and extremely noisy what with the incessant honking. I couldn't live there. And, if that was the case in 1985, I wonder how it must be now. I have seen videos of Bombay dating back to 1920's. It seems way better then further back I go in time. Personally, from the videos I have seen, might as well say 1960 was alright for the city. Still manageable. Not later.
Us waqt afternoon me road, train bus, sab suna aur khali hota tha
Sirf morning aur night me rush hour hota tha jise office time bhi Bolte the
Raat 9 ke baad fir se suna ho jata tha, purani yade Mumbai ki
Even on Sunday....sab bandh hota thaa.... trains, buses... empty..
But aaj....Sunday pata hi nahi chalta.... Locals...Sunday aur jada crowded hoti hai...
Being a 90's kid...older but lovely memories..
Sunday ko between 9 and 10, God forbid if you needed to travel by taxi or rickshaw. You would not get one. All would be busy watching Ramayana and Mahabharata on DD channel. 😃😃
After 90s and 2000 there has been a lot of transformation...but still love those days
Amazing video. I wonder if the creator or this video visited india again
Even in 1985 Bombay was so ahead of it's time in India
Because of British
Because of it’s people :) British has no contribution in lifting up the cosmopolitan spirit of the city.
I am reading a book called Shantaram. It's not easy to visualise Bombay in 80s as a person never been there. This vid is helpful. Thanks!
I am 2006 born and watching this i always wanted to see how was my india back then
Except for newer cars nothing much has changed even the same toy holicopter is still sold today shit!

Classic 250
Wow 🥺 beautiful ❤️

Lamby.
I was born in 1985 in Mumbai, great footage
Nostalgic! The bellbottoms were getting finished and smaller bottoms were started. The moustache wer like Kamal hasan and lessening of hair setting like Amitabh was in vouge. Mumbai was the hub of new trends and salwar kurta was getting introduced even for the middle aged women. Earlier the attire was meant for unmarried girls. But it seems to be starting point of that fashion for married women. Girls and Jeans were hardly seen. Guavas were seen means, was it Nov / Dec? Such a vibrant city.... At CST the crowd was there, running non stop, but they were at leisure as compared to IT sector running for their homes now a days. Oh! CST! How one could have imagined to make happen 2006 and 2008 in this city, pity and sad!
Excellent only public transport, no CellPhone,no JeansPant & T shir Simple & Hard working people.
Earlier people were very nice, there was love inside the people.
This is the Bombay we all miss !
He traveled from Byculla ..Mohd Ali Road..VT(CST)..Fort..Handloom house(DN road)..Mumbai University...Elphinstone college & then returned to Crawford market. I live in this part of Mumbai. I was 10 years old then.
Shows clearly Bombay was already overcrowded in 1985. Too crowded and noisy for me with the incessant honking. I believe it was ok till around 1960 or so. I dare not say anything about 2023!
Reminds me of Amol Palekar movies
Mumbai is same now as it was before. Nothing has changed apart the dressing, food & cars. The famous Mohammedali road, Dadar, Mahim, Colaba, Bycullla, Dharavi, Kalbadevi street etc all are same. People are more friendlier than before.
Golden times with gold 💓 people fun unlimited
"You are on TV"
Nowadays
"You are on RUclips"
Nearly everyone on RUclips in India, was born after this video was taken, including me.
Beautiful video. For those who think life was bliss then, let me say that a lot of things have become easier now. Life was tough tben. Bombay was very filthy with slums all around, defecation on most streets outside of South Bombay, and corruption all around with the underworld controlling the economy. How things have changed... technology has made it possible for people to be more aware. For the generation born later, ur seriously blessed to have more opportunities today than ever before. use ur present to make a better tomorrow .. ❤
It’s same today
@@rohanutep81 its the same today for those who think everything is an entitlement for them.
So many Padminis on the streets of Bombay back then
That was the time when Super Stars like Amitabh, Jeetendra, Mithun, Dharmendra, Shatrughan Sinha, Raj Babbar, Rajesh Khanna, were ruling the film industry no SRK no Salman Khan no Akshay Kumar no Aamir Khan no Ranveer Singh were there
Thanks for this beautiful video it's interesting to watch those time wen we were not even born, I think those days also Mumbai was populated & heavy traffic city
What a beautiful video 😭❤️
This is more like kolkata in 2021, as we have here in Calcutta - filthy & underdeveloped streets, Shops have thronged the pedestrian walks.
@ 5.54 kick starting a lam by scooter....dats very synonymous 2 most of our childhood.....
no srk khan, salman khan.. simple time
Yeah true. Don't you think it was easier to be an actor back then? I mean now it's nepotism.
Kinko Sam after 2-3 years of it srk salman and aamir was entered in bollywood
Nepotism promoted by none other than the Jihadi Snake called Dawood Ibrahim.
SRK, Salman and Amir get their strength from him, as long as he is alive and they will also lose their strength with Dawood's death. Dawood's death should probably sound the death knell for Nepotism in Bollywood.
@@kinkosam2167 true the only way to be a successful star in today's bollywood is you hafto be star kid. This was the time sridevi and madhuri were rising
time when Bollywood had made good movies too i believe...amitabh,mithun,jeetendra...then anil kapoor,sunny deol,jackie shroff,sanjay dutt,kumar gaurav and even rajinikanth....
Thanks for this video. Nostalgic!
Nice and good. It seems like just yesterday. Thanks.
South Mumbai is the only part of Mumbai worth seeing. Rest is Concrete Jungle and Slums.
Thank you so much for posting :)
I was born in 1985 April. Can't describe this beautiful feeling in words. Pure nostalgia! Thanks for sharing this.
Look at that blue color truck in the beginning of the video, we have seen in so many old movies these trucks used to crush the 'boodhi Maa' 😂
@Nidhi Roy I strongly feel like traveling back to that time through a time machine. Its my only wish in life!
A dill hai mushkil jeena yaha..jara hatke jara bachke ye hai bambai meri jaan
nice thanks 4 uploading completely enjoyed..👍👍
Thanks for uploading this rare Gem............!!!
I love and miss you grandfather cry and cry come back to me
Year 1985 was a very good time.
It’s such a puzzling question that Mumbai seems to have transformed but has the same soul as it had 40 years back ❤
Because of u i could see bombay of my birth day time thanks......sir
