Journey Through India: Mumbai | CNBC International 

Its funny and so true.....Actually the fact today is that only we Indians know what paradise India can be if u start exploring.....These foreigners just have to go to all those cliche places and film only those parts of country which are familiar with western public......

If you think from their point of view, it would make sense. They don't have anything like Chandni Chowk or Dharavi in their countries so they are drawn to them. We have very few developed localities comparable to the West in our cities, so we are drawn to them. Besides, the educated classes of Lutyens and SoBo have trained themselves ignore the poverty and underdevelopment but are still very conscious of the "image of their city" in the eyes of the foreigners, so they expect them to turn a blind eye to it as well.

@@JoincidenceWithC to be honest the items are the made in these chowks are being sold to US business for dollars..there is used to days where weavers can make sarees that can fit in a match box

than develop these areas

Why don't show the many richer and very nice places??? I don't get it.

Oh PLEASE. CHILL. Dharavi is a major part of Mumbai.. and he did a good job of showing how Dharavi is not some slum which houses jobless bums.. but instead has THRIVING business entrepreneurs all working tirelessly. Sometimes we Indians are too over-sensitive.

My friend, read what I have written in the comment. As I said, I am not being patriotic here or trying to defend India, but if you do read the title, it says that this video is about a documentary of Mumbai, not dharavi. Had the video specifically said that it intends to show dharavi, it would have had all my appreciation. However, as it is a documentary of MUMBAI (As has been specified by the title of the video), I do believe showing all parts of Mumbai to be the right way to show it. Tell me, if the title of a video has Rio De Janeiro, and only ends up showing the Favelas present over there without showing the beaches would you say that documentary has done justice to the city? In the same way, I really believe they could have shown more of Mumbai. However, they probably gather more views on showing the slums so can't really talk logic with these guys.

I find in any visual piece on Mumbai; Dharavi gets the most space. Of course Dharavi is important, but that's just one part of Mumbai. It should not be shown as the central piece. Every other part should be an equal part of the Mumbai story. Just like the Hindi film industry (I refuse to call it "Bollywood") is a part of the Mumbai story.The local trains; the cricket germination process; all are equal parts.

They just don't care.. They just love slums

@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Yes, Mumbai and Delhi are far behind Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong, NYC etc. That's not what the point of my comment is. This documentary is about giving the viewer a flavour of what the city of Mumbai is like. If I had a friend/relative coming over and asked me to show him the city, I would show him so many awesome places like the BKC, Lokhandwala, Juhu, Marine Drive, Fort, Bandra, The amazing theatres, Cafes, Malls and so much more. I also would show them the slums because why not? But my point is, that does Mumbai finish at Dharavi? The title of the video clearly indicates a video about Mumbai, the city not Just Dharavi. Why make Dharavi the sole representation of the city when it has so much more to offer? That's my only point. Not to debate on the economic development of the city in comparison to its international counterparts, but to contest the manner in which the city has been represented as a whole in this video.

he's not white

i am also confused. was He Indian or Foreigner ?

Maybe he is Anglo Indian🤔🤔

I was wondering how?

The guy is not white. He is North Indian and not even the highest caste. There’s whiter people in India 🇮🇳

Thumbnail gay😂😂

I dont think he said this

Oh that sob is another bozo from the west who get an orgasm at the sight of slums.

@Hi there white people I find your IGNORANCE CUTEAnd this shitty film won the Oscar award. 😤

I hate slumdog millanior. Such disgusting movie.nobody in India watches that piece of shit.Danny Boyle should go to hell for that movie

They can't get over slums & poverty 😂 Never saw CNN/BBC/etc.... documentary visiting Banglore city , New Hyderabad , North East ,Sikkim(world's first organic state), kerela , Rajasthan , Karnataka forest and Ladakh that much . They love things which they don't usually see 😂. Who cares about Our Incredible India , all they care about is slum , Cows & poor people 😅

Bro,They Will Never Go To Any Of The Good Places Of India They Will Always Show The Dirty Places Of India

sikkim kingdom

@@user-rr7tp7wm1d well, See the full picture beyond your state fed propaganda. Read and watch things of international repute.

No they won't go to such beautiful places, they'll only concentrate on the dirty side of India.

Really a beautiful place with good people, I mean they are really honest.

A number of people recommended we check out Reality Tours, and we're glad we did. Loved learning about the leather, pottery and recycling industries within Dharavi.

Bad news for them is Dharavi will be redeveloped soon. The whole slum will be developed into residential locality. Government and private builders will spend $25 billion dollars.

CNBC International why don’t you guys track Dharavi redevelopment plan, and make a documentary out of it.

As soon as I saw this video link, I knew they are gonna show the Poor Side of India...lol .....they didn't even showed the Mumbai Mono Rail line, nor the Worli Sea Link. Grow up CNBC...show some bright side and developments too in your videos.

Of course a number of dumbed people because of corporations like yours would want you to go to the slums you are the reason they are so uneducated when it comes to modern India. next time head off to gurgoan,noida ,Bangalore that was voted the most dynamic city in the world a true technological hub or how about you heading off to Chandigarh or shimla and showcasIng both the beauty and vast Urban development there .you could actually showcase New Delhi (not old Delhi like you people love to do )and film just how illustrious and well developed New Delhi actually is and then you could shoot with the middle class kids in south Delhi and visit all the sprawling malls huge skyscrapers and beautiful suburbs .why not shoot in malabar hill in Mumbai or shoot all the suburbs there .this vile colonial hangover has to stop it's blatant indo phobia a trick to keep people believing that they are living on the better side of the world when in reality they are not a middle class kid living in south Delhi will have a better life than someone living in Detroit .why not make a film about how much the vedas with all it's great philosophy And amazing scientific knowledge impacted the whole world as well as Sanskrit contribution to many different languages globally or a film showcasing how india is one of the most diverse vast and complicated regions on earth you could also make a film examining Sikhism And all the good it's people do or how India gave home to the bene Jewish people as well as the Parsi and Syrians Christian's when they needed it a place that historically has had no anti semitism . you could also touch upon all the different cultures states religions and ethnicities of one of the most fascinating places on earth.why not film about indias contribution to science and medicine and How much the Indian diaspora has impacted the world especially in America with many ceos being Indian that Is a great success story everyone needs to learn about indias diversity as well as the influence the indus has had on the world as well as being educating on modern India colonialism And indo phobia go hand in hand everyone needs to be taught about that for once show the lives of the Young Urban middle class kids why not try and be impartial instead of biased i knew before I watched it it would just be showing slums once again the colonialists oversimplifying such a diverse nation that is fast becoming one of the strongest economies in the world for those people who have had actual real pro longed exposure and spent time in the Urban cities you can see just how snesky this is never showing the other side also go film in Sikkim Ladakh or himachal And show the breathtaking beauty there the irony after filming he likely chilled at all the plush Bars and restaurants laugh out loud

Look up the history of colonial indo phobia Therein lies your answer they would never show the we'll developed side of India like for example a place like Gurgoan etc they also have to keep dumbed down tools believing the false illusion that they live on the better side of the world hence why cities like New Delhi and Mumbai are never properly shown

There is no highly developed Part in Mumbai. Look at cities of China, India stands nowhere.

@@ssah7594 You have clearly never visited Bandra or SoBo

Yea some cool solution these idiots won't stop so we should start our own that would be better

That plan always failed hope this will not fail again

@@KishanKumar-qz1kt No this one will not fail because Government will only invest 20% and rest 80% by the private builders. The problem is definitely challenging but this time the entire slum will be redeveloped and not in four to five parts as planned few years ago. Even the people have agreed as they will be getting bigger Houses. The builder will get concession on GST and many other taxes. Plus higher FSI.

Please I pray to god this happens. 🙏

Many of them r plain ignorant if not malice filled.

Love you bro..... Great reply

Love China from India...let's teach the west a lesson

Hey Chitresh. Not against our ethics at all! We loved the places we visited in Mumbai, but if they weren't to your taste, there are still four more episodes left that may be more up your alley.

It seems to me that CNBC provided unbiased view of India. It clearly showed how its large slums can be fairly productive, and they didn't really touch on the pollution/hygiene problem in India either. So I'm not sure what it is that you're complaining about

1 American country of Porn Star

CNBC International four more episodes in mumbai or whole India? if those four episodes are for whole india, I agree with @chitresh

Kevin Where are you from buddy?

ADIDAT this side of coin shows the differences of Mumbai from other big cities around the world, the other side you mentioned every big city already have

@@shidifenyang4032 These differences are going to be redeveloped thankfully.

Because India is mostly a slumped country and the other side that you said is just a tiny portion of it.

@@odehko Exactly

@@odehko dude only mumbai has slums cities like bangalore kolkata and chennai are mostly free of them

For this question, I suggest you ask your government or prime minister Modi, and they will give you the best answer.

It will show the reality of India which western media has not been shown since ages. To their interest better to show slums rather than skyscrapers

Dude there is no point visiting that places for them , because they can easily find that kind of places in their country, What i mean to say that they are interested in unique things/places which are only found in India. Just saying

Those are not poor places

@captain gamers it's one of the richest City is also the reality. They won't show that

@captain gamers first you should look out because they never showed developed parts of mumbai

Like Derek O'Brien did.

Western media only know slum

Western media show old Delhi

With Gujarat after indore 😊😊😊

@@capitalismscholar2375 uh no Navi Mumbai is second. You can check the list if you want.

@@AnkurSingh-uo3wl okay than third whatever makes you happy 😗😗

@@capitalismscholar2375 haha no offense bro.

By wester standards, Indore is still dirty and poor.

Yeah powertrain we will ho through a silent breakthrough

Mohit Kumar Most parts of Mumbai are very devolved, India is just a country where you can walk into a Rolls Royce Dealership and a block away your in one of the most poorest parts of Asia. The difference between wealthy and poor is massive and you see it so much where poor live alongside the wealth.

My friend stays in Mumbai and he works there.i asked him how is Mumbai.he said Mumbai is nasty...

lol

Paul Saha just keepin it real ;-)

G Joeye because they don’t take a bath that’s why they save a lot of money 😂

We would love to!

God bless Africa, love from India
