Mumbai is the home of Bollywood and its common to run into some filming, or perhaps an actor/actress or two on affluent Marine Drive. Foreigners strolling around the area are sometimes even drafted in as extras to give films an international feel. Thus, I was a little excited when I arrived to a closed off road and a carnival of activity. I waited around, hoping to see a bolywood star or a dance number. Instead, I was greated by a Indian themed Richard Branson- playing a drum on top of a taxi and preceeded by a brass brand tooting bollywood music. I couldn’t have made it up.
