Some Mumbai observations as a non Mumbaikar

• Young boys of Juhu, Bandra, Versova all look like Aryan Khan and Vedang Raina (Archies starcast), like everyone is an actor here or what?

• The traffic isn't shitty, the drivers are. They are coming at you from everywhere, left right front. If you can drive here, you are good for anywhere tbh

• Only 1% of the Two wheelers drivers wear helmet. No fear of traffic cops if not for life?

• The roads man, the roads. Never appreciated Delhi/Gurgaon more than seeing such tiny roads across the country

• The pay disparity is on the face! Posh areas with tall buildings are lined with small houses - tarpaulin roof, bare walls but AC units

• The family bond is very evident - families watching TVs together with windows open (why don't they draw curtains tbh?) or be it on beaches over the weekend. It's cute nonetheless ❤️

• The safety is crazy (in a very good way). I was out at 10pm last night, and my mind was panicking like shit. But looks like, be it 10 am or 10pm, it is BAU for the city

• Have you seen the traffic signals? Apart from the usual, they have four tubelights in perpendicular. Just cannot jump lights now!

• Metro has 4 coaches 😆

• The Sea heals parts of your soul you didn’t even know were broken 🥺

I'll add more 🫣
