"Bombay Daak: Discovering the Kolis of the Seven Islands"

In the bustling heart of modern Mumbai lies a rich tapestry of history, culture, and tradition, interwoven with the timeless rhythms of the Arabian Sea. This is a story of the Kolis, the indigenous fishing communities whose legacy dates back to the time when this vibrant city was but a collection of seven islands. As the world rushes forward into an era of rapid urbanization, it becomes ever more crucial to look back, to uncover the roots that nourish the ever-growing tree of Mumbai's identity.

Bombay Daak is not just a story; it is an invitation to engage with the Kolis' past, present, and future. It is a bridge between the modernity of Mumbai and the enduring traditions of its coastal natives. It is an acknowledgment of the Kolis' significance in shaping the city's cultural mosaic and the challenges they face in an evolving urban landscape. Through this book, we hope to celebrate the Kolis' contributions, honor their heritage, and highlight their aspirations for the future. We invite you to journey with us, to discover the Kolis of the Seven Islands, and to gain a deeper appreciation of the rich history and culture that continue to thrive amidst the bustling metropolis of Mumbai. Welcome to Bombay Daak. Your voyage of discovery begins here.
