    A wonderful collection of stories! Kaikini truly captures the essence of Mumbai and its people. Highly recommend!

    A must-read for anyone interested in Mumbai. The stories are diverse and thought-provoking. A few were less engaging, hence the rating.

  10. Varalika Kathuria –

    I was expecting more. Some stories were just dragged and didn’t have a strong narrative. Not worth it.

  11. Medapureddi Tejo Sheshadri –

    A mixed bag of stories. Some were captivating glimpses into Mumbai life, others felt a bit too abstract. Worth a read, but not every story resonated.

  12. Kunal Gupta –

    I enjoyed the book. Some stories were great, some stories were confusing and didn’t make sense. Characters were well developed though.
