Setting out as early as 8 am from Famous Studios in Mahalaxmi, Payal Kapadia joined the walk guided by Eshan Sharma, founder of Karwaan Heritage Walk, to explore the history of Lower Parel. The walk is called 'All We Know As Bombay'
Incidentally, Kapadia's 'All We Imagine As Light', which released on November 22, focuses on the mills and the workers
Unsurprisingly, Sharma dived into the now defunct Shakti Mills, Kamala Mills and even Urmi Estate
During the walk, Kapadia dived into the characters of Prabha and Anu, the two of three central characters, but not without Parvaty, whose own struggles with housing in Mumbai is one that many may identify with in the city
While the Western Railway Ground cannot be missed, the BDD chawl is also an integral part of the Lower Parel neighbourhood passing by the railway station. In an engaging walk, Sharma weaves a tale that Kapadia seamlessly showcases in the film through the trains, skywalks, homes and even the metro
