I love being in Mumbai and want to continue being here.

I grew up in Mumbai.

Mumbai's infectious. Once you start living in Mumbai, working in Mumbai, I don't think you can live anywhere else.

I am a Mumbaichi mulgi.

I was born in our Chembur house in Mumbai, where we lived for five years after which we shifted to our Lokhandwala house.

I'm from an Indian family of professionals, and my parents had to go through hardships themselves to send me to IIT-Mumbai.

Mumbai may not be my city. But it is my kind of city.

Since 2005, I have not spent much time with my family. In fact I have spent more time at the Taj Landsend in Mumbai. It was my 100th visit recently, which means I have spent more than 400 days in that hotel, and that is a lot more than I have spent with my family.

Mumbai is like Manhattan. There's a certain pace, a social life and the thrill of a professional life.

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.
