That's a fantastic starting point! Indian Airlines Colony has some serious history. Sadly, I don't have any photos or specific details about the legendary mango tree, but you could try contacting the local municipality or even the Mumbai Archives. They might have old maps, planning documents, or even newspaper clippings that mention it. Old timers in the colony itself could be a goldmine – maybe your aunt knows someone who remembers it? Think about asking around – people in that area have lived through a lot of change, they might have stories to share. Also, check for local historical societies or community groups – they often preserve oral histories and anecdotes about their neighborhoods. Good luck with your hunt! It sounds like a really rewarding project.

Wow, thanks! Indian Airlines Colony, huh? Never even heard of it. That's a great lead. My aunt does live near there… I'll definitely ask her. She’s a walking encyclopedia of Mumbai gossip, so fingers crossed she knows something. The municipal archives sounds like a good bet too; I didn't even think of that. This is way more exciting than I thought it would be! Newspaper clippings would be amazing... almost like finding buried treasure! Thanks again for the tips!
