Midtown Manhattan is the "happening area" but the moment you go to Bronx, Queens or Brooklyn, the resemblance with Mumbai's suburbs is pretty evident.<br /><br />@Ajit<br />Surprisingly this comparison hit me the moment I landed in New York. Didn't have to look too much in detail, the similarities are too striking to be ignored!<br /><br />@$$<br />I hope you get the chance to see it for yourself soon :)The Wandererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03141364930661222842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1125121660197544272.post-83305008307392526512010-01-20T11:01:02.077+05:302010-01-20T11:01:02.077+05:30Yeah... even I have heard many people point simila...Yeah... even I have heard many people point similarities b/w Mumbai and New York.

Even though the two cities have umpteen differences (historical, geographical,cultural amid many others), the parallelism that you have drawn indeed makes an interesting read. Perhaps, another point worth mentioning is that both of these cities are the respective financial capitals & consequently, serve as the hubs of business/economic activities. As for the differences, a quick one that comes to the mind is that, while Mumbai is the home to Bollywood (stereotypically considered to symbolize Indian cinema), NYC is not. It stands as the little sister of tinsel town, as a home for the performing arts, but certainly is worth mentioning for the asylum it provides for wannabe artists. Overall, a good read Karan.KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14941481579020768889noreply@blogger.com
