Mumbai Beckons


I was not born in Mumbai, I was not brought up in Mumbai yet it is the one place when talked about brings a smile to my face.  It has been given many names, the city of dreams, the city of opportunities, home to the largest slums of Asia i.e. Dharavi, the Gateway of India etc. But to me it is a home away from home. It is my comfort zone. Even if I have to jostle for space whilst travelling in the local train to the BEST buses, there are no complaints sitting on the parapet of Marine Drive just gazing aimlessly at the Arabian Sea lifts my spirits. Eating Bhel puri or Bhutta and admiring the Queen’s Necklace that starts from Marine Drive, crossing Chowpatty right upto the high rise buildings of Malabar Hills is the sight to see. There is no end to the sights of Mumbai and how can one miss out on the latest additions i.e. the Sea-Link from Bandra to Worli that cuts short the travel distance considerably. Mumbai again is the home to innumerable actors and actresses who strike gold here and become famous known faces.  So guys who want to become rich and a famous or the next Sharukh Khan can go and declare to the Arabian Sea “I will be the King of this City”. Mumbai is waiting and will welcome you with open arms.
