“My father Kaifi Azmi was a member of the Communist Party and we lived in a small room in the Red Flag Hall (what else could it be called?) with eight families sharing a bathroom in Khetwadi.
I used to attend so many strikes that I used to think of them as an occasions to party and be pampered. When I was nine, we shifted to Juhu and l realise that I lost touch with that part of the Bombay I grew up in,” she quipped. The festival ends today.
