A rare & unique collection of artifacts from everyday life of Maharashtra

Jul 2014 • Business

Private museums are very interesting places to explore . They like personal art collections , share the unique passions of an individual . Aai means 'mother' in Marathi, the local language of Mumbai. The Aai museum has rare & unique collection of artifacts from everyday life, personally collected by Dr.Vithal Venkatesh Kamat.

It has a great collection of daily use products like betel-nut crackers , Farmaan Daan's or fabric letter holders , Abhishek Patras, Rattles, Paan-Daans, Chuna-Dibbis, Combs and many other items. A must visit.

For art lovers it is a nice place.The museum has four sections. Two galleries on the ground floor and two on top. First one spot the portrait of Pilaji Jadhavrao, the brave Maratha. In the other spot, there are oil lamps and jewellery which were used to adorn domestic animals in ancient period.There is a huge collection of cooking vessel and lanterns placed at the front yard. The left gallery features a collection of ancient board games such as Ludo, and decorative storage boxes made of brass, copper, iron and wood. It also display variety of dhotis, turbans and walking sticks.
On the first floor of the gallery we can see bullock carts and a doli used by king and queen .

Beautifully maintained museum

Jun 2018 • Friends

The museum is clean and superbly well-maintained for a secluded Fort museum. Mr Tukaram is the manager there and he takes you through a very interesting journey relating to today's modern day items and the ones displayed in the rooms. Definitely a not to be missed attraction if you're staying at Fort Jadhavgarh.

small but beautiful collection

Oct 2017 • Business

A small exhibition of daily life artefacts, put together by the owner of Orchid Hotel.
It probably takes only 15 min to see the whole collection, but it's nevertheless worthwhile. If you are staying at the hotel, its in the first floor, and open 10-5 with a short lunch break.

Tribute to all the mothers of the world

Apr 2015 • Solo

Aai means 'mother' in Marathi, the local language of Mumbai and it is at the Orchid (a five star hotel) which is very rare to see in a five star.
Really nice to watch...

What a great museum in Orchid

Feb 2016 • Business

Was on a business meeting at Orchid. And I saw a board of that museum. The name aai means mother in Marathi and it tempted me to go to that museum. Its simply amazing museum and i totally recommend it. Additionally it is close to the airport. So one can also visit during departure
