"Mumbai is all about the food and nightlife for me" - Kritika Kamra

Television actress Kritika Kamra still fondly remembered as Doctor Nidhi' from Sony TV's Kuch Toh Log Kahenge, shares with urlremoved what she loves most about the city of Mumbai!

How is Mumbai different from any other city?

After having grown up in Delhi and then moving to Mumbai later, I feel that this city is one of the most fast paced ones I've ever come across, as there is just so much happening here! Mumbai is somehow always buzzing with life which I just find so awesome, as I am a very restless person who needs a lot to be happening in life. So according to me, this is what makes the city of Mumbai different from others.

What is that one thing you can't live without in this city?

Autos are the one thing I can't live without in this city. They are most convenient on the days your driver decides to ditch you, and of course make life much easier in regard with the parking issues in this city!

What do you love the most about Mumbai?

There are a lot of things I love about this awesome city, but the warm and friendly people are definitely what I love most about Mumbai! Always very helpful and kind, and at the same time not interfering or poking their noses into anything they shouldn't be!

What do you hate the most about Mumbai?

I hate the potholes, roads and traffic situation in Mumbai! It's really bad in comparison with other metropolitan cities, so I strongly feel that these things should be taken care of really soon!

Vada Pav or Bhel Puri?

I am a very Street Food' person and so for me, it's both Vada Pav and Bhel Puri!

If you have a tourist who has never been to Mumbai before, where would you take him/her?

Mumbai is all about the food and nightlife for me, so I would take people who haven't been here before to a happening night club or some great restaurants around town, like maybe a good Irani one or Mohammad Ali road too! Besides that, I would just drive them around Gateway of India, The Taj, Marine Drive, Worli Seaface etc which is the regular drill.

A place that can instantly cheer you up?

I love the sea and places facing the sea too, and luckily my home window faces the sea, so just sitting there and looking out at the sea which is a beautiful view of course, can instantly cheer me up!

Where can you have more fun- Suburbs or Town?

If Bandra is considered part of the suburbs then I would say the suburbs, because I can always have fun in Bandra! It"s just a great area to be in, which practically has anything and everything possible! It's an ideal area where I can just spend my entire day.

Name a place in Mumbai where you can never ever get bored?

There are so many places so naming one would be unfair, but I can never ever get bored at Gadda Da Vida Novotel, Pali Village Cafe, Pali Bhavan, a night club called Or-Gy in bandra which is a complete comfort zone for me, Cafe Zoey, The Comedy Store, the Yoga studio which is a small beautiful cafe and any place facing the sea of course!
