'''Sahar Village''' lies in the [[Vile Parle]] East suburb of [[Mumbai]]. It is among the oldest settlements of [[East Indians]] on [[Salsette Island]]. The village had a station on the [[Salsette–Trombay Railway]] that was dismantled after the rail line closed in 1934.<ref>{{cite web|title=Railway Gauges in India |url=http://irfca.org/faq/faq-gauge.html |publisher=IRFCA.org |accessdate=7 October 2014}}</ref>

The opening of the Sahar International Terminal (Terminal 2) of the [[Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport]] in the 1980s led to subsequent urban development in the area.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.timeoutmumbai.net/client_coverstory/client_coverstory_details.asp?coverstoyrcode=90&coverpage=true |title=The Republic of Andheri: It's a concrete jungle out there |work=[[Time Out (magazine)|Time Out]], Mumbai |date= |accessdate=2011-02-12}}</ref>
