Content Brief
The guide is in five broad sections —

Part 1, Mumbai and Mumbaikars on the Go encompasses the best eating out, nightlife, shopping and entertainment; in short, where Mumbai parties. It also has special features on tracking Bollywood in its home city, and on the Great Outdoors, where Mumbai plays.

Part 2, People, places and the spirit of Mumbai reintroduces the heritage of Mumbai to Mumbai’s people, through 10 unmissable trails, which take the reader back to places which evoke the past and still continue to have a vibrant present, such as Fort, Dalal Street and Mohammed Ali Road. Mumbai is famous for its religious places of syncretic faith where Mumbaikars of all backgrounds worship. We visit each of these and Mumbai’s famous festivals, from kite flying during Sankranti to best spots for Ramazan iftar. We also look at the many communities of India’s most cosmopolitan city, and their contributions to culinary and festive traditions that are now Mumbai’s own.

Part 3, The lowdown on Mumbai’s twin city, Navi Mumbai, written by a local. A capsule on eating out, nightlife, shopping, leisure and all that the twin city offers.
