Talaash! Which part of Mumbai do you want to see?

This picture I clicked is in Tehelka's Independence Special cover story called Love Across The Lines.

It's for a story about a couple, Murtaza and Shylaja who are originally from Bangalore and live in Mumbai with their infant son, Rehan. It's a love story that began high up in the sky where they met each other on a flight. No wonder they threw the rules up in the sky and got married across the lines. Read their wonderful love story and several others, here.

I also got to spend a wonderful, nostalgia filled, rainy afternoon with the couple and their son in their apartment. It's not everyday that I meet people from my home town, especially those who shared the same growing up experience as me. Thank you Murtaza and Shylaja for the wonderful chai-a and photographs.

Other photographs clicked on assignment, here.
