Community : Dharavi - the community does not require any introduction. People from Mumbai, out of Mumbai, even out of our country have heard a lot about this cosmopolitan and ever thriving community.
However, if I had to introduce the locality to someone new to the city - it would be "A place where time just zooms past!"
There is so much happening.. The community is up and going from as early as 5.30 am (that's the earliest I've managed to be present) and active and still bubbling with business, fun and camaraderie till late night.
The kids are hyper enthusiastic and have great potential to excel in a field they are passionate about. It takes time to gain their confidence; but, once they trust you, you can get the best out of them.
