whose Mumbai is this?
I did not enjoy writing this post 
People who know me, are aware of my love and respect for the city of Mumbai. I have been living here for the last 4 years now and can say that the city really has a mystic attraction in it and is in fact a real melting pot. First it were Gujaratis, then south Indians and now north Indians - it seems some elements of the city have a problem with rest of India!
Anyway, despite my discomfort in writing this post, I do so because a couple of days back a book was released titled "Zero Point Bombay - In and Around Horniman Cirlce" which contains essays and photographs of old Bombay, its transformation from a city under Portugese, through British and the modern city under the democratic free India.
Is it ironical that the book jas been authored by three ladies, Usha Thakkar (a gujju), Kamla Ganesh (a southie) and Gita Chadha (a northie)? And this is the very reason I did not enjoy writing this post - I hate classifying humans in categories (whatsoever).
