Look at the pain on this man's face and observe that his eyes are searching for some "Answer to an old wound".

These photographs were clicked in Mumbai-India. Mumbai, is the financial capital of India where people are always in a hurry. All Multinational Companies have their offices in Mumbai. Mumbai is known as the 'City that never Sleeps'. But Mumbai accomodates every body. There are people who are multi-billionaires and then there are also people who find it difficult to make ends meet. There are people who dont have a moment to spare and then there are also people who have so much time that they don't know how to spend it. There are people who lead a mechanical life and then there are also people who earn money doing what they are fond of. Mumbai is a multi-faceted city and so are its people.
Look at the expressions on the face of these people as they spend just another day of their life.
