Missing


The fisherwoman who used to come door to door selling the catch of the day is now being missed not only by the buyers but also the cats and crows in the neighbourhood who used to be treated to the offal after the cleaning of the fish. Pre Lockdown tales.

British soldiers' pond


This is where the British soldiers in the 18th century came to sunbathe and take a dip in Bandra. Had posted a picture of the pond a few days back here

Anarkali


One of the oldest murals in Bandra, painted by Ranjit Dahiya the pioneer of Hindi film murals in Mumbai. This is titled Anarkali after a film of the same name that was released in 1953 based on the legend of the Mughal emperor Jehangir, who revolted against his father Akbar, over his love for a commoner named Anarkali.
