  • Kala Ghoda Poems: Anguish Brought by Hypocrisy of Progress
    ================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 15:1 January 2015 ================================================================== Kala Ghoda Poems: Anguish Brought by Hypocrisy of Progress Dr. Mrs. Anisa G. Mujawar, M.A., M.Phil., Ph.D. ================================================= Courtesy: http://www.cse.iitk.ac.in/users/amit/books/kolatkar-2011-collected-poems- in.html Abstract Arun Kolatkar’s Kala Ghoda depicts postmodern socio-political India. It represents the life of the underprivileged and highlights its absolute disparity with the technological and material progress of India. It portrays the lives of people living on the streets - sweepers, lepers, prostitutes, beggars, drunkards, and others like them. It brings objects, animals, rubbish, and ecology together. Kolatkar observes the marginalized poor, against the overcrowded, advanced, capitalistic Mumbai, to pinpoint that their condition has not changed in post-colonial India. Their condition was neither good in the pre-British times, nor did it improve in the colonial period, and continues to go on in the same miserable drudgery even today! The features of postmodernism like irony, humour, minimalism, techno culture, writing of the long poem by dividing it into shorter pieces, consumerism, commodity glorification, identity crisis and so on, are all reflected in Kala Ghoda. Kolatkar does not indulge in the past traditions of India, but focuses on the wider, modern world and the people living in capitalist urbanization.

Derived from the industrial district conceptualized by Alfred Marshall in the late 19th century and revisited in the 1980s in Italy by the theorists of the regulation and, in particular Giacomo Becattini, it came to designate more or less concentrated area specialized in art activities, initiated either by small-scales industries or public institutions or both.

BOMBAY HERITAGE WALKS With its mix of styles ranging from Victorian and Gothic to Indo-Saracenic and the highest number of Art Deco buildings after Miami, Mumbai is a goldmine for architecture buffs. And those visiting the city should look to Bom- bay Heritage Walks, a group founded by local architects Abha Bahl and Brinda Gaitonde- Nayak that offers design-focused tours of the numerous landmarks concentrated in South Mumbai’s Fort district. Led by experts in archi- tecture and art history, the Horniman Circle Walk takes in a host of sights including the Asiatic Library, the Mumbai Samachar Marg (Asia’s oldest stock exchange), and St. Thomas Cathedral—all in just two hours. Bombay Heri- tage Walks has been the tour group of choice for numerous foreign dignitaries and Chelsea Clinton, though it’s also popular among Mum- bai residents thanks to an increasing interest in heritage conservation among locals (bombay heritagewalks.com; US$40 per person). FOOD TOURS OF MUMBAI Some say the best way to discover a city is through its food, but in India, it’s easy to be fearful of being put out by a bad case of “Del- hi Belly” (or in this case, “Mumbai Malaise”).

  • Mumbai Retail Guide
    MUMBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Mumbai | 2019 0 Mumbai serves as the financial capital of India and accounts for the highest GDP contribution in the country, currently standing at approximately 6.61%. Mumbai is the second most populated city in the country with a population of approximately 22 million. Mumbai’s retail market is characterised by smaller disorganised retailers or corner shops retailing various commodities ranging from food to clothes and other household items, as is the case across most cities and towns in India. Rapid economic growth and changing consumer preferences have transformed Mumbai’s retail market, with organised retail increasingly playing a much larger part. Over the years, several large organised developments have sprung up across the city, ranging from mass to premium and luxury. Several local and international luxury brands have opened stores in Mumbai and many consider the city a launch pad for their brand. The presence of Bollywood, one of the world’s leading movie industries, has fuelled the growth of organised retail in Mumbai, with many stars endorsing both local and global brands alike. Brands such as H&M, GAP, Sephora, Scotch & Soda, Muji, Massimo Dutti, Jo Malone, Longchamp, American Eagle, Armani Exchange, Hackett, Onitsuka Tiger, Hamley's, Simon Carter, Du Rhône Chocolatier, Bath & Body Works, Franck Muller, Hublot have all entered the Mumbai retail market. New entrants tend to open stores in malls first, within prominent retail developments, then subsequently establish a footprint on major streets. Luxury labels benefit from high-net-worth individuals (HNI) in Mumbai, many of whom travel abroad frequently and have high disposable incomes.
