Amidst the Bollywood biggies & Blooming Billionaires that capture the headlines all year through, there lie a certain class of people, unsung, unexplored, unpublished.
These uncut diamonds from the queens necklace, with their works more beautiful than celebrities, acts more selfless than the billionaires, do deserve a quotient of glamour dedicated solely to them.
A story that deals with many raw aspects of various categories of people making Mumbai more Mumbai than any other Mumbaikar :)
A story from Virar to Churchgate, Ferries to rickshaws, Gateway to National Park & finally from Bombay to Mumbai .
