I’ve been a born and bred SoBo resident for years, and even though I essentially work in Juhu/Bandra, I will always have a SoBo ‘“chhaap”—at least for my NoBo brethren. NoBo-ites have this “ungli” thing for their SoBo neighbours, “Oh wow you’ve come to the ‘burbs’, had to get a visa, huh?’ (chuckle chuckle).

Recently I invested in a Schengen visa—what’s a Schengen visa, you will ask? It’s a visa that allows me entry through all “toll nakas” and free passage to all of Mumbai’s highways- Western Express, Eastern Express, Pune Expressway.
