Mumbai has been extensively photographed over the past century. Like New York, it is a city full of men and women with aspirations of making it big in life. Mumbai is also known as a dream factory because of the overwhelming presence of its film industry, one of the biggest in the world. This book collects nearly three decades of the work of Raghu Rai, one of India's foremost photojournalists. The pictures encompass life in all its manifestations from the high-rise skyscrapers to the gushing waves of the Arabian Sea. It shows movement and activity that almost never ceases fairs and festivities, political demonstrations, films in the making and the advertising and modelling scene.
