Kandivli

Kandivali (Pronunciation: [kaːn̪d̪iʋəliː]) formerly Khandolee is a suburb in the north of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India and has a large Marathi, Koli, Gujarati population followed by others. British records highlight a fact which is different from what is suggested in the rest of the article. The area names that ends with "vali" were the actual valleys to the small hills surrounding the area, and that's how we have Kandolee Valley to Kandivali.
