Bombay Talking...

Yes, i visited Mumbai for the first time...and u know what did i see first when the plane was landing? SLUMS...everywhere!!! They mean it when they say that most portion of mumbai is inhabited by slum dwellers...But, on the other hand, while take off during the return flight, the whole city was lighted, it was a beautiful sight...yes, i was mesmerized for some time...the city is very beautiful at night time...i happened to come through a road that had all the 5-stars hotels lined up...and yes, they looked amazing!!!

Although i stayed out of the city as my interview was in Powai, yet the city attracted me in lot many ways, one reason is that i was happy to see the lives of my b-school friends, got some of the myths cleared....and the other that my interview went good.

Walking on the roads of IIT Bombay was a delightful experience, wishing i too make it there...and be a part of the amazing institute. Having lived in Calcutta for more than 4 years, i was quick in observing the difference in the life styles of the people in mumbai...its true when they say "Bombay is dearer, but it is also the dearest". There was a different kind of an energy everywhere, which i could not relate to a specific thing...i guess its the feeling that u have when you go to a new place...Well, i hope i see more of mumbai soon....
