Enriched with diversity and engulfed in typical metropolitan ups and downs, Mumbai, the industrial capital of India, is a maze of its own kind. Its geographical upheavals dating back to five crore years and six hundred years of foreign rule are embedded on its person. No doubt, all the modern day pressures are making this city vulnerable to a number of incurable ills. Still the exodus of fortune seekers and makers to this fascinating city since time unmemorable is a testimony in itself. Mumbai is lavish, luxurious, glamorous, fascinating and it is also bad, ugly and deceptive. It is the gateway of India. Wherein, when one enters forever becomes a `Mumbaikar'.
