O man there are so many similarities between Mumbai n Karachi(I mean places names). As I am hardly 27, so could not see the past things but so many old building n roads with original names here give us pictures of past.Thanks.

And Karachi looked very much cosmopolitan in pics like Mumbai is. Names of Muslim, Hindu, christian n Parasi names were noted points.
