Don't go Shanaya (At Shiro's)
This was day before evening (18th March) that our colleagues and me visited Shiro (next to Hard Rock Cafe, Parel) with one senior visiting officers.

Learnings from the attacks
I am really moved by the atmosphere in Mumbai (is it the same way in other parts of India too, my friends?), all charged up.
