Mumbai is a city of stories, of histories, of cities within a city. Historian-poet Anushka Gupta has delved deep into the heritage and architecture of the city, tracing origins and exploring the city’s history and cultural fabric, to unearth Mumbai’s hidden gems through her lens - an anthology of historical works, about the city of seven islands. At our Online Talk #HistoriesOfBombay, she takes us back in time, through photographs and words, to capture the essence of the city.
