It has been just 2 weeks here in Mumbai...and doubts about it being the city of dreams have started to fizzle out...!!! Indeed it's ironic that the city which hardly sleeps gets the above title...
When I initially came here, I was quite uncertain abt the city...was pretty much perplexed as I had heard so many different things about itz people, abt itz culture...from so many different sources...even nw my nani often calls me to tell, "beta, mumbai mayanagri hai...jo hota h voh dikhta nai aur jo dhikta h voh hota nai...samhal k rehna..." n before of late, I always used to wonder about the subsistence...but now that I am here for quite some time, I think I can take a stand on whether this sleepless city is actually a city of dreams or rather a living nightmare...a frequent topic of debate..!!
A matter of fact to begin with, Mumbai is one of the most densely populated city in the world.This is enough evidence, that there's something extremely desirable about this city or may be the benefits far outweigh the limitations.Living and working in the nation's financial capital, is a dream for many. The never-say-die spirit of the Mumbaikars and their out-of-the-way efforts to help someone to stand on their feet, makes it a very ‘real’ place to live in. Every Mumbailite, by definition is hard-working. It is the place to learn about evolution and survival of the fittest. Whether you are driving a luxury SUV on the sea link or eating vada pav on the street, dreams exist within all.
The people of Mumbai, both- the original residents and migrants have created a culture of friendliness and acceptance and the city is open to people of all castes and religions.It would not take much time for a newbie to tune in and mingle with the crowd and neither does one have to roam around in search of places and things, especially when one has got friend like http://mumbaiservice.com/ :D
Well, http://mumbaiservice.com/ is an online business directory exclusively tailored for the mumbaikars...n proved to be of great help to me...with it's street level penetration, it provides every detail of whatever one is looking for on just a few clicks...newaz, Every city has some kind of problems, but the facilities that this city provides are unparalleled. Once a person gets the taste of this city, it's almost impossible to leave...Even after living here for a short while, one can tell that for a person living here, life would almost come to a standstill, away from this ‘ sleepless city of dreams....’ !!!
