New Delhi:
Dharavi, Asia's largest slum and Mumbai's shadow city, might bear little resemblance to the opulent and fast growing Indian financial capital that surrounds it. But chances are, this glimpse into this city within a city will leave you stripped of the notions you've always carried - there is poverty, there is hardship, there is insufficiency but there is also so much more.
The video 'Dharavi - a Look Inside' will take you inside the slum-city. You'll be able to look at it through the eyes of a man who was born there and those who take the 'Be The Local' - Dharavi tour with him. The sights and sounds of what has become a place of urban legend are impactful as is the story of how the tours began and grew from a word-of-mouth adventure to a digital enterprise.
10 guides, college students from Dharavi who pay their education fees with the money they earn from these tours, take tourists around the slums that are bustling with activities, introducing them to the many industries within these slums.
Expect the unexpected - a surprise, which will leave you smiling.
