One of the most fascinating sight in any city would be the road side traders. Some how they add colour to any city any time.
On my recent visit to Mumbai, I had the opportunity to click a few amazing shots that depicts the life of the street vendors. From the "Idli" (steamed rice cake) wallah at India Gate to "Moongafalle" (ground nut) seller at Juhu Beach, they all add charm to the glamorous Mumbai.
Mumbai or Bombay as it is formerly known, is well known globally for Bollywood, and from the commercial perspective it is the business capital of India.
But beyond that its these little traders that are the life blood of Mumbai who serve Mumbaikaars, day in day out. This is would be a humble tribute to the contribution of the street vendors to the city of Mumbai.

"In this city, every deserted street corner conceals a crowd. It appears in a minute when something disrupts the way in which the world is suppose to work. It can disappear almost as instantaneously." - Jerry Pinto (Mumbai based writer and a Poet)
