Meeting the inhabitants of Bombay
The crazy, traffic choked streets of Bombay, India, are home to nearly 20 million people. As well as housing the ultra-rich, the city is also home to the biggest slums in Asia. Recently named the most densely populated city in the world, Bombay is chaotic, crowded and loud. Yet beyond the hustle and bustle of this massive metropolis are an amazing variety of characters working hard to beat the crowds, the heat and the poverty.There’s Abbas, the wheeler-dealer taxi driver preying on rich tourists in downtown Bombay; Eman, the gay son of strict Muslim parents; and Ranjana, the beautiful but unworldly village girl who dreams of Bollywood stardom.
