"Humans Of Bombay" by Karishma Mehta: A Review

Prem Rao : Stories from a Story Teller

19-03-2022 • 6 mins

Styled after the iconic, "Humans of New York" by Brandon Stanton, Karishma Mehta's "Humans of Bombay" brings you slices of life in India's commercial capital- Bombay, now called Mumbai. Here you meet people from different walks of life, cutting across age, gender, and religion. Each has a story to tell. The delightful pictures that accompany each story add to the warmth of the story, be they just a page in length, or at times a few pages and sometimes just a few sentences!

The stories are interesting, very real and often heart warming. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to see contemporary India as exemplified by life in Bombay, often called The City of Dreams and The City That Never Sleeps.
