Mumbai- the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. 2015



Mumbai

My journey to India, of course, begins at the Mumbai airport.
I flew in early in the morning, I was a little late for the fingerprint check, and the device broke. But Yevgeniy Ichelzon, developed with his personality,  kindly greeted me.
We sat down in a taxi, practically in the dark, it seemed to me that it was 4 o'clock, the morning had not yet come, we left the airport.
To be honest, the horror of what I saw on the road has forever remained in my memory. And now it seems like a bad dream or footage from a horror movie.
High-rise buildings rose on both sides of the road and they were terrible slums.
On the road, ghosts or, as it seemed to me, dead people roamed between the moving cars. The eyes of these people were dead.
So - Hello, India - I have arrived.
Now and then I thought that I was sorry I hadn't taken the camera out of the bag, but it was unlikely that anything would come of it, it was dark and very, very scary.
And now information about the city itself.
