ayeee yeh hai bombay meri jaan

way back in the black and white era, one balmy sunday afternoon Mukesh and his musicians got to gether at the ernstwhile mehboob studios, there was idle chat and humidity in the air. And what did they come up with? ,"Bombay meri jaan".
Remember that slimy Keshto Mukherjee finding his way on Marine Drive and swaying in his own world, with the mouth organ playing in the background
"kahi saata, kayi paata, kahi chori, kahi rape,
Kahi daaka, kayi paaka kahi thookar, kahi thaes
Bekaro ke kahi kam hai yehaan
Ayyye dil hai mushkil jeena yaha
jaara hat ke jaara bach ke yeh hai bombay meri jaan"

it has always been my secret desire to film Bombay on the move in the rains, can you imagine the bustling Crawford market in the rains or the Kaneri Caves with its long waterfall. Absolutely mind blowing.
