The fire temple, built by the Jokhi family, serves more than 500 families staying at Godrej Baug, one of the newest Parsi colonies in the city.
The fire enshrined at the temple was brought to Mumbai in December 1999 from Navsari in Gujarat where it was worshipped after being shifted from a closed shrine in Tavri village in the 1960s. The night-time ceremony from the Khareghat Colony agiary, Hughes Road, where the fire rested for a day, to the new shrine on Malabar Hill, had not been witnessed for generations.
