Evocative visual journey through Bombay's transformation.

If you're drawn to the allure of history and the charm of old cities, "Bombay Then and Mumbai Now" offers you a time portal into the heart of one of India's most dynamic cities. The bygone eras come alive through a trove of exclusive photographs and meticulously researched narratives, sketching the city's metamorphosis. This book is more than a visual treat; it's a cultural tapestry woven with stories of transformation and continuity that any lover of history, photography, or the pulsating life of Mumbai would cherish.
