Architect Vikas Dilawari takes us through the fascinating restoration journey of the Ma Hajiani Dargah in Mumbai.
Built in 1908 by the Yusuf family, this dargah stands atop an 80-foot hilly outcrop overlooking the Arabian Sea, showcasing beautiful Indo-Saracenic architecture.
The Ma Hajiani Dargah, a heritage structure, is dedicated to Ma Hajiani, believed to be the sister of the famous saint Haji Ali.
The restoration, led by Dilawari, focused on preserving the structure's historical and architectural integrity despite years of exposure to harsh coastal weather.
This dargah is not just an architectural marvel but also a spiritual haven for women who come to pray for marital blessings and fertility.
Discover the challenges and triumphs of this restoration project and the rich cultural heritage it preserves.
