REVIEWS

Cristian Castelnuovo Photographer

Working with Mahindra has been an extraordinary experience. Not only is he an excellent fixer, but he is also an invaluable guide for professionals in photography, filmmaking, and video making. His deep knowledge of Mumbai, combined with his ability to unveil its hidden secrets, made my work not only easier but also incredibly creative. Thanks to his support, I was able to capture photographs that without his help would have remained just a dream. He was essential in the making of different projects I undertook in Bombay, Orissa and Kerala. Mahindra is undoubtedly the best fixer for anyone looking to explore and capture the magic of Mumbai and India. I highly recommend his services to anyone wishing to take their project to the next level.

Mahindra has been an indispensable assistant throughout the year-long “Street Children of Bombay” project. I honestly couldn’t have done it without him. Trustworthy, highly knowledgeable, and a genuinely remarkable person, he made a significant impact on the work. Over the course of the project, we became close friends, and we continue to stay in touch to this day. If you find yourself in Mumbai, don’t hesitate to connect with Mahindra—he’ll show you the city in a way you’ve never seen before. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Mahindra was a fantastic guide for my trip to Mumbai. Our schedule was really demanding and our requests very specific and niche, and Mahindra was incredible, sorting everything out with a huge smile. I’m certain there’s no corner in the city where Mahindra doesn’t have friends and contacts, or know a special place where you’ll find an amazing view or meal. We would never have managed to have such a successful trip without Mahindra’s amazing resourcefulness, smiling face and unmatched on-the-ground knowledge. I’d highly recommend his services.
