Ordinary People Extraordinary Stories

Eight years ago, Karishma Mehta founded Humans of Bombay, inspired by the single idea- we all want to be heard. From the first shoot, where she traipsed Mumbai's iconic Marine Drive, asking strangers to speak with her, she's brought together a team of storytellers and a community of over 3.2 million people who believe in the power of humanity. This book, a collection of some of the best stories documented over the last 8 years, is Karishma's love letter to the people of India. Every story in this collection is unique, inspirational, and relatable, and offers a glimpse into a country with 1.3 billion beating hearts ... one tale at a time.
