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

NM Joshi Marg




Nothing can leave a bad taste in your mouth like people fighting or when orchestrated well, pump adrenaline through your veins.


But there are exceptions to the rule.







































Mud wrestling does not stand a chance on television but the almost pachyderm style of fighting has the ability to make a viewer's blood rush without leaving a sick taste in your mouth like say a Mixed Martial Art or the way the average Indian male eyes, elbows and manhandles thousands of women on the Indian streets, each day.



Also, my friend Yatish shared this video by Kiran Magham who mixed moving images from this Akhada with James Brown's Sex Machine.
