The city's undergoing such a transformation. I remember how dismayed a lot of Indians felt when Slumdog won the Oscar, and I only started to understand those sentiments on this trip.Supriya Savkoorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10854983392374596718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-7025025560747746942010-11-03T08:14:20.670-04:002010-11-03T08:14:20.670-04:00Very exciting post!

I was thrilled to read about the growth and changes, especially after the images of Slum dog still reside in my mind.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01534284446634705363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-29401358646058821872010-10-13T18:57:57.220-04:002010-10-13T18:57:57.220-04:00It made me want to go to Mumbai!

Many people who grew up in Bombay remember it differently - now I know why - a lot has changed since 20-30, or even 10 years ago.Lina Zeldovichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04258464515913616152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-40063577565318272692010-10-13T18:10:57.265-04:002010-10-13T18:10:57.265-04:00What a fabulous post, Supriya.

I suffered just a little the next day, but it was well worth it.<br /><br />In Bangalore, by the way, they're really mixing it up, with options like Hong Kong Chat (ie, includes noodles), etc. Talk about progress.Supriya Savkoorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10854983392374596718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-77286850885765190252010-10-13T12:18:39.712-04:002010-10-13T12:18:39.712-04:00Reading this made me feel nostalgic loved it ..

What I really miss the most though is eating the street food ..yum ..NO 5 or 7 star hotels can beat that food. looking forward to more blogs <br /><br /><br />PinkyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
