Mumbai - The City Of Paranoids

By Mukti Sharma

Mumbai is the place where I visited recently. It is the financial capital of India & also a very beautiful & exciting place. This city is the capital of Maharashtra also & Indian cinema i.e. "Bollywood." Apparantly this city is very beautiful, informative, historical place which is also a hub of Indian fashion. Now what makes this city so beautiful is that this city is surrounded by sea. There are so many chaupaies there. You can go on a Marine Drive beach which for me was a new & exciting experience. In India there are a number of beautiful Beaches with Goa being a hub of them. Though this city - Mumbai, is very crowded but it is very beautiful.

Generally it is said this city is a place for rich people which is true to some extent because there are very rich people residing in Mumbai like Anil & Mukesh Ambani, Sachin Tendulkar, Amitabh Bachchan etc. But poor people also inhibit this city. They do minor or labor work to sustain themselves. Poor people can be seen on the pavements at night.

There are so many places where you can go & sit near sea & have some fresh air. It is nice place to get over your loneliness. There are many estaurants & food spots where you can get every kind of dishes whether it is South Indian or Chinese or Mughlai. One important thing about this city is that its weather is quite good & it rains quite often which suits Mumbai. So considering all these things I would like to suggest all the tourist from abroad as well as India who have not visited Mumbai that it is very good, nice, beautiful & informative place & one should visit there at least once in a lifetime. This place is a quite knowledge gaining & historical place since BSE sensex & Bollywood resides there.
