Mumbai’s heart lives at this southern most part. It actually describes Mumbai and Mumbai spirit at its best. For the years, this place has a special place in my heart.
I have tried multiple occasions to describe the feeling of being at Nariman Point/Marine Drive but unable to do so. I have never been so successful in finding words to describe the feeling of being at Nariman Point/Marine Drive.
Perhaps, It is the waves and the sound of sea which makes me calm down. Perhaps it is the bright lights of Mumbai Street which enlightens me. Perhaps it is the life surrounding the place, million people that you see at this place with all kind of different talks. Perhaps it is the skyline of Mumbai which inspires me and motivates me. I still don’t know whats the magic that this place has but whatever it is, it is simply awesome.
Be it the old people from Gujarat who would describe this as “Mumbai Ni Ronak Ajab Che , Ho Bhai” OR It is the people from UP/Bihar describing, “bumbai ki to baat hi nirali hai”. There are young students who would come there with bag packs and tons of tension of school/college/groups to have a group conversation.
Also, there will be plenty of romance at this place. Be it young married couple from outside Mumbai, OR you would find young college couple. You will also find 60 year old Parsi Couple Romance. You will also find young middle age couples (some times people with extra marital affair, trying to hide themselves). You would find, young friends with opposite sex trying to give each other advice, stuff like, “You know my mother still loves you, before this vikrant thing happened, she used to tell me, why don’t you go out with Girish, he is so cool” (Poor girish would be all blushing).
I think, what works for this place, is the curve that it has with bright lights and the steps build around it, so all kind of people can come and have a seat. It is like “Life” sitting their surrounding the “Curve of Life”. Waves of water help you relax also if it is day time, you can see long way out and it gives the feeling that, “Life is long, if you use it wisely”. You turn your head and see big buildings which inspire you to go long way ahead in your career. It motivates you to earn big sum of money. It encourages you to be successful in your life. To Me (and many of my friends), it is one of the 1000 things to do in life, is to have a Office at Nariman Point.
If you are walking across marine drive, you can hear million of conversation from different people. I wish and pray that our bollywood film makers and story writers should visit this place; they will find 1000 good stories, especially film makers such as Karan Johar who are stuck with Raj/Rahul stories.
I have always found that this place whenever I visit, brings amazing amount of revive me energy in me. It breathes new life into me. It makes me go numb. It amazes me. It inspires me. This place makes me blush. This place rejuvenates me.
