    Hey wasn’t it Bombay? I don’t think you even want to publish pics of Mumbai, considering the state of my Hometown !!! All in All a truly beautiful collection you have put together.

    hey i was not born at that time but still such mindblowing lovely pics. it is clearly seen that mumbai city was really very silent peaceful with the feeling of brotherhood among indians lovely pics of bullock cart which is very rarely today in the city look at those old bldgs build by the british especially babulnath temple look at those old structure really feel like going in the past to experience that atmosphere
