BNLF Mumbai: Official Thread

Folks, our most ambitious project is now underway, and we need all of you on board. This entire thing is planned and executed by IndiBlogger - which means all of you can play a crucial role in this event!

https://www.bnlf.com/

You should receive an email today with regards to getting passes for this event, and the grand scale of things. In the meantime though, perhaps we can use this thread to discuss bloggers from Mumbai hosting outstation bloggers for the two days of BNLF (thanks to Blogwati Gee for the idea!).

Bloggers from outside Mumbai who are looking for a place to stay, and bloggers from Mumbai who have a spare bed or three, please let us know!

Unfortunately, IB will not be able to sponsor travel or accomodation for outstation bloggers, as this event is really quite expensive, far, far more expensive than anything we've ever done before. On the upside though, that means being at this event is going to be more than worth your while!

Also, if anyone has any tips or questions on traveling to Mumbai, finding hotels near the venue which are safe for women, so on and so forth - please add it to this thread. Thanks! Smile

I got a call from the Indi team, but when I asked about the stay I was told to check the BNLF website, which still mentions that we'll be notified soon about our stay buddies. What to do guys? I'll reach Mumbai on 30th evening, and haven't planned my stay yet.

Hello, Shubham, on another thread, IB has said that you should get the stay details latest by 28. Let's hope that happens.

Yes, I planned everything right from travel to stay. Unexpected delay in project implementation landed me in soup and weekend now is the most hectic of all. So disappointed in not making it. Miss you too.

Western Line local from Mumbai Central to andheri.Metro from Andheri Station to Marol.Auto from Marol to The Lalit.

Not a mumbaiker but have been there for few time.

Please correct me if i am wrong.:)

@Humaid Thanks a lot for the reply :). Looks like a great plan. Just one question, will I be able to find Ola Cabs or something like that at Andheri or Marol Naka?  

Humaid Siddiqui

I have just checked google maps and its 650Mtr from Airport Road Metro Station (If you walk) And 700 Mtr from Marol Naka.I guess Auto would be more economical!! Never took OLA/Uber in Mumbai so no idea about it!!
