I thought maybe those were books in the bag. Indeed many volumes could be written on the people in Mumbai. Many probably have been already. Marvelous photo!
Even if you haven't written a book, you've definitely taken a photo of the sort that fits the adages "every picture tells a story" and "a picture says a thousand words" -- a wonderful, creative take on the theme. Well done! :)
One of my favorite Canadian writers was born in Mumbai. Rohinton Mistry has written a number of books about the lives of people in Mumbai. "Family Matters" and "Tales from Firozsha Baag" are my favorite.
