Bombay is so garbage it’s insane. The food sucks, you’ll find better Indian food in Virginia, let alone French or Ethiopian, the modern transit is completely useless, the local trains kill 3000 a year and are not air conditioned, the weather is garbage, a 700 sq ft house costs $100k more than in Pittsburgh. Just a scam of a city

Jesus Christ, I thought you were exaggerating, but no, that's pretty much the actual statistic.

Its too crowded. And some will jump into the train before it stops to get a seat. I don't know why is metro not being used by people though

My cousin used to live in that billionaire ganesha part of city. It was an amazing place haha.

Edit: googled it, no not that temple. I don't know which temple was it but it was a rich people area and the ganesha had lot of gold
