OUTCOME

OUTCOME

A walk through the humbly populated Dadar in the busy city of Mumbai, witnessing the beauty of a city in its smaller and simpler pleasures. One of Mumbai's most populated pockets, yet carrying a quaintness that the city rarely makes room for. The hustle and the stillness, existing on the same street. Not looking for anything extraordinary. Just Dadar, being itself on a regular day.

Kabootar Khana infamous for its noise, indifferent to the quiet beach sitting just beside it

Shaded trees, old temples and gardens where time moves at its own unhurried pace

The Parsi presence woven into the modest charm of old houses, the quiet elegance of their clothes, the easy grace of their living

As if everyone quietly agreed the afternoon belongs to rest, conversations lingering in the shade before the city begins again

From sobo girls to struggling actors, hopes, dreams, lives and tiffin boxes all passing through in the same whiff of a second. The train, like the city, waits for no one.
