Cutting chai garam

"As a Mumbaikar I am not at all in a doubt of how Mumbai arises every morning. Brushing, bathing, flushing and a cutting chai is the beginning of the day. Chai is the bonding between poor and the people of higher echelon of society. When one visits a 'chai tapri', they can see all types of people sharing there morning thoughts with friends and at the evening share out stressed thoughts with friends on a cutting. Chai has become a very crucial part of the culture and lifestyle here in Mumbai and I'm sure in many places across the nation fuels up with a cutting."
