I'm from an Indian family of professionals, and my parents had to go through hardships themselves to send me to IIT-Mumbai.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love being in Mumbai and want to continue being here.
I have lived in Mumbai for more than 20 years, have my domicile here, my home and family here.
I am an engineer by profession, but I knew I wanted to act. My parents always encouraged me, and when my father shifted to Mumbai for work for a brief while, I came along.
I grew up in Mumbai.
I'm a school dropout. So, at the age of 16, I moved to Mumbai to try my luck on some business.
I was born in Faridabad and I spent a major part of my growing up years in Delhi before shifting to Mumbai. Delhi-NCR is still very special to me.
Mumbai's infectious. Once you start living in Mumbai, working in Mumbai, I don't think you can live anywhere else.
It's not so much what you learn about Mumbai, it's what you learn about yourself, really. It's a funny old hippie thing, but it's true as well. You find out a lot about yourself and your tolerance, and about your inclusiveness.
I went to India, lived, and studied.
Moving to India was challenging being a foreigner. I don't have any family here. I didn't have anyone to guide me. But I never felt for a second that I am not welcome here.
