Mumbai kisike baap ka nahin hai ..
Mumbai: A place you can call home and yet where you might remain homeless. Friendly and hostile. Generous and ruthless. A city that embraces and embodies contradictions.
No other city captures your imagination with such fierceness and none other obsesses as much over space – be it a 250 sq. ft. kholi in a chawl or a snazzy apartment in a gated colony. The boy who calls a patch on the pavement his ‘ghar’ or the globetrotting fashion entrepreneur at her Cumballa Hill home, the star waving to his fans from his Bandra terrace or the migrant who struggles to find acceptance in the city teeming with ‘outsiders’ – every person in this city has a story of negotiating the idea of space.
At Home in Mumbai is an attempt to tell some of these stories – to understand what being at home really means to those who have been part of the incredible narrative that is Mumbai.
