Tollygunge
Tollygunge is a locality of South Kolkata. It is flanked by the Eastern Railway south suburban line to the north, Lake Gardens and Golf Green in the east, the Pashchim and Purba Putiaries in the south, and Behala in the west.
==History==
The area called Tollygunge is named after Major William Tolly, who in 1775-76 started a project to excavate and dredge the Adi Ganga as a passage for the people of East Bengal and Assam to Calcutta. He was also granted a license to collect tolls from the passing boats and permitted by the British East India Company to open a ''gunj'' or market on the eastern bank of the ''()]'' which acquired the name Tolly's Nullah. The waterway was opened to navigation in 1777.
The area is the centre of the Bengali film industry, which is known by the nickname Tollywood, and is the location of Indrapuri Studio and Technician Studio.
