So whatever is that idea that’s been in your head for all these years, whatever it is that you always wanted to tell others but did not have the stage to do it, here’s the opportunity. At APOA 2015 !!

Go on, write up a brief abstract with a couple of photos and mail it to: [email protected]

A panel of judges will select the most interesting and unusual ones for presentation.

Formerly called Bombay, Mumbai is one of the most happening cities in India.

Mumbai is a busy metropolis, nevertheless, it is a tourist hot-spot because of

its energy and vigor. Dubbed as the commercial capital of India, the city is

home to some of India's largest corporate houses.

Mumbai is a wonderful tourist destination. This erstwhile insignificant port

city has now developed to become one of the foremost metropolis of the

world. Other than the charms of being in a beautiful metropolis, Mumbai has

monuments of historical importance. The Gateway Of India is one such

magnificent monument and prime tourist attraction in the city. The city also

has wonderful beaches and these beaches have become wonderful leisure

spots for people.

The city also has a multi-million dollar film-making industry. If there is ever a

place other than Hollywood which attracts tourists because of glamour

business, then it has to be Mumbai. Popularly referred to as Bollywood,

Mumbai film industry is not only big but also very charismatic. Every year a

number of Hindi pot-boilers are produced here. The actors and actresses enjoy

a massive fan following throughout India as well as abroad.

As the capital city of the state of Maharashtra, Mumbai is politically one of the

most important cities in western India. It also has its own culture, traditions

and festivals. This busy metropolis comes to a screeching halt during the

Ganesh Chaturthi. The people in this part of the country speak Maratha but

like a true cosmopolitan city, Mumbai is a fine melting pot where you will find

people from di�erent parts of India living in harmony in spite of the di�erence

in language, dress codes and food habits. English is understood and spoken by

a large number of people. It will not be very di�cult, therefore, to over come

this problem of communication.
