Foreign media starts from chandni chowk and ends up at dharavi this is the only two places that defines India.
Its funny and so true.....Actually the fact today is that only we Indians know what paradise India can be if u start exploring.....These foreigners just have to go to all those cliche places and film only those parts of country which are familiar with western public......
If you think from their point of view, it would make sense. They don't have anything like Chandni Chowk or Dharavi in their countries so they are drawn to them. We have very few developed localities comparable to the West in our cities, so we are drawn to them. Besides, the educated classes of Lutyens and SoBo have trained themselves ignore the poverty and underdevelopment but are still very conscious of the "image of their city" in the eyes of the foreigners, so they expect them to turn a blind eye to it as well.
@@JoincidenceWithC to be honest the items are the made in these chowks are being sold to US business for dollars..there is used to days where weavers can make sarees that can fit in a match box
than develop these areas
Why don't show the many richer and very nice places??? I don't get it.
That white guy with the Indian accent 😂😂😂😂 omg
he's not white
i am also confused. was He Indian or Foreigner ?
Maybe he is Anglo Indian🤔🤔
I was wondering how?
The guy is not white. He is North Indian and not even the highest caste. There’s whiter people in India 🇮🇳
It’s like going to USA and showing only homeless people
Congratulations CNBC, you achieved your goal of Filming Dharavi. 😂😂😂
Thumbnail gay😂😂
Dear CNBC,
As a resident of Mumbai, I have no issues if you show its poor side, but while you are at it, it is important for you to show ALL sides of the city to get a more comprehensive feel of the city for the average viewer. The city has developed MASSIVELY in the last couple of years, but if you continue to show only dharavi every time you decide to show Mumbai,(which by the way will be replaced by a normal residential area through a plan set by the government) A laymen's impression of the city will continue to be of the city being dirty, filled with slums and cramped to the core. I am not being patriotic here or trying to show any love for the country, but as such a big media house, it is important to show a bit of responsibility when it comes to representing any place being recorded by you.
Oh PLEASE. CHILL.
Dharavi is a major part of Mumbai.. and he did a good job of showing how Dharavi is not some slum which houses jobless bums.. but instead has THRIVING business entrepreneurs all working tirelessly. Sometimes we Indians are too over-sensitive.
My friend, read what I have written in the comment. As I said, I am not being patriotic here or trying to defend India, but if you do read the title, it says that this video is about a documentary of Mumbai, not dharavi. Had the video specifically said that it intends to show dharavi, it would have had all my appreciation. However, as it is a documentary of MUMBAI (As has been specified by the title of the video), I do believe showing all parts of Mumbai to be the right way to show it. Tell me, if the title of a video has Rio De Janeiro, and only ends up showing the Favelas present over there without showing the beaches would you say that documentary has done justice to the city? In the same way, I really believe they could have shown more of Mumbai. However, they probably gather more views on showing the slums so can't really talk logic with these guys.
I find in any visual piece on Mumbai; Dharavi gets the most space. Of course Dharavi is important, but that's just one part of Mumbai. It should not be shown as the central piece. Every other part should be an equal part of the Mumbai story. Just like the Hindi film industry (I refuse to call it "Bollywood") is a part of the Mumbai story.The local trains; the cricket germination process; all are equal parts.
They just don't care.. They just love slums
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Yes, Mumbai and Delhi are far behind Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong, NYC etc. That's not what the point of my comment is.
This documentary is about giving the viewer a flavour of what the city of Mumbai is like. If I had a friend/relative coming over and asked me to show him the city, I would show him so many awesome places like the BKC, Lokhandwala, Juhu, Marine Drive, Fort, Bandra, The amazing theatres, Cafes, Malls and so much more. I also would show them the slums because why not? But my point is, that does Mumbai finish at Dharavi? The title of the video clearly indicates a video about Mumbai, the city not Just Dharavi. Why make Dharavi the sole representation of the city when it has so much more to offer? That's my only point. Not to debate on the economic development of the city in comparison to its international counterparts, but to contest the manner in which the city has been represented as a whole in this video.
*Danny Boyle, the director of Slumdog Millionaire, after filming in India said "You leave India, but India never leaves you." India is such a vibrant country with so much potential.*
I dont think he said this
Oh that sob is another bozo from the west who get an orgasm at the sight of slums.
@Hi there white people I find your IGNORANCE CUTEAnd this shitty film won the Oscar award. 😤
I hate slumdog millanior. Such disgusting movie.nobody in India watches that piece of shit.Danny Boyle should go to hell for that movie
They can't get over slums & poverty 😂
Never saw CNN/BBC/etc.... documentary visiting Banglore city , New Hyderabad , North East ,Sikkim(world's first organic state), kerela , Rajasthan , Karnataka forest and Ladakh that much .
They love things which they don't usually see 😂. Who cares about Our Incredible India , all they care about is slum , Cows & poor people 😅
You must Visit Sikkim, the only fully organic state in the world.
Bro,They Will Never Go To Any Of The Good Places Of India They Will Always Show The Dirty Places Of India
sikkim kingdom
@@user-rr7tp7wm1d well, See the full picture beyond your state fed propaganda. Read and watch things of international repute.
No they won't go to such beautiful places, they'll only concentrate on the dirty side of India.
Really a beautiful place with good people, I mean they are really honest.
Guides be like “lets explore the city”
Western Media : We don’t do that here
It was nice but one thing i couldn't understand why u people don't show the highly developed parts of Mumbai. whenever any foreigner comes in Mumbai they only shows Slums. sometimes this creates the bad image of this city and country. There are millions of good things to show in mumbai.
Look up the history of colonial indo phobia Therein lies your answer they would never show the we'll developed side of India like for example a place like Gurgoan etc they also have to keep dumbed down tools believing the false illusion that they live on the better side of the world hence why cities like New Delhi and Mumbai are never properly shown
There is no highly developed Part in Mumbai. Look at cities of China, India stands nowhere.
@@ssah7594 You have clearly never visited Bandra or SoBo
Do you people like to show slums whenever you vloggers come to India?? or it is a natural instinct that comes to your mind that an Indian video must contain 'slum shoots'...??
A number of people recommended we check out Reality Tours, and we're glad we did. Loved learning about the leather, pottery and recycling industries within Dharavi.
Bad news for them is Dharavi will be redeveloped soon. The whole slum will be developed into residential locality. Government and private builders will spend $25 billion dollars.
CNBC International why don’t you guys track Dharavi redevelopment plan, and make a documentary out of it.
As soon as I saw this video link, I knew they are gonna show the Poor Side of India...lol .....they didn't even showed the Mumbai Mono Rail line, nor the Worli Sea Link. Grow up CNBC...show some bright side and developments too in your videos.
Of course a number of dumbed people because of corporations like yours would want you to go to the slums you are the reason they are so uneducated when it comes to modern India. next time head off to gurgoan,noida ,Bangalore that was voted the most dynamic city in the world a true technological hub or how about you heading off to Chandigarh or shimla and showcasIng both the beauty and vast Urban development there .you could actually showcase New Delhi (not old Delhi like you people love to do )and film just how illustrious and well developed New Delhi actually is and then you could shoot with the middle class kids in south Delhi and visit all the sprawling malls huge skyscrapers and beautiful suburbs .why not shoot in malabar hill in Mumbai or shoot all the suburbs there .this vile colonial hangover has to stop it's blatant indo phobia a trick to keep people believing that they are living on the better side of the world when in reality they are not a middle class kid living in south Delhi will have a better life than someone living in Detroit .why not make a film about how much the vedas with all it's great philosophy And amazing scientific knowledge impacted the whole world as well as Sanskrit contribution to many different languages globally or a film showcasing how india is one of the most diverse vast and complicated regions on earth you could also make a film examining Sikhism And all the good it's people do or how India gave home to the bene Jewish people as well as the Parsi and Syrians Christian's when they needed it a place that historically has had no anti semitism . you could also touch upon all the different cultures states religions and ethnicities of one of the most fascinating places on earth.why not film about indias contribution to science and medicine and How much the Indian diaspora has impacted the world especially in America with many ceos being Indian that Is a great success story everyone needs to learn about indias diversity as well as the influence the indus has had on the world as well as being educating on modern India colonialism And indo phobia go hand in hand everyone needs to be taught about that for once show the lives of the Young Urban middle class kids why not try and be impartial instead of biased i knew before I watched it it would just be showing slums once again the colonialists oversimplifying such a diverse nation that is fast becoming one of the strongest economies in the world for those people who have had actual real pro longed exposure and spent time in the Urban cities you can see just how snesky this is never showing the other side also go film in Sikkim Ladakh or himachal And show the breathtaking beauty there the irony after filming he likely chilled at all the plush Bars and restaurants laugh out loud
Showing this side of india
But he is definately staying in 5 star hotel in the good side of city which they will never show.
Great Job CNBC for showing Dharavi slum of Mumbai in the video because Government of Maharashtra has signed a deal to develop the entire slum with private builders. People will be shifted to residential towers in phases. Check Times of India for reference. Good job because you many not be able to shoot the slum in two to three years as it won't exist in few years.
That plan always failed hope this will not fail again
@@KishanKumar-qz1kt No this one will not fail because Government will only invest 20% and rest 80% by the private builders. The problem is definitely challenging but this time the entire slum will be redeveloped and not in four to five parts as planned few years ago. Even the people have agreed as they will be getting bigger Houses. The builder will get concession on GST and many other taxes. Plus higher FSI.
Please I pray to god this happens. 🙏
Many of them r plain ignorant if not malice filled.
Love you bro.....
Great reply
Hey cnbc!! Can you show the developed part of India any time? Or its against your ethics. Biased media houses 😏
Hey Chitresh. Not against our ethics at all! We loved the places we visited in Mumbai, but if they weren't to your taste, there are still four more episodes left that may be more up your alley.
It seems to me that CNBC provided unbiased view of India. It clearly showed how its large slums can be fairly productive, and they didn't really touch on the pollution/hygiene problem in India either. So I'm not sure what it is that you're complaining about
1 American country of Porn Star
CNBC International four more episodes in mumbai or whole India? if those four episodes are for whole india, I agree with @chitresh
Kevin Where are you from buddy?
1:27 that man with flowers for her wife, that's so cute.
Love India from China 🇨🇳❤️🇳🇪 Long life our friendship
Love China from India...let's teach the west a lesson
Why do you only show this side of the coin????
You didn't talk about anything about the main town Mumbai with sky touching buildings and other uniqueness of India.
Everyone knows this side of the coin, it's time ro show them there other one!
ADIDAT this side of coin shows the differences of Mumbai from other big cities around the world, the other side you mentioned every big city already have
@@shidifenyang4032
These differences are going to be redeveloped thankfully.
Because India is mostly a slumped country and the other side that you said is just a tiny portion of it.
@@odehko
Exactly
@@odehko dude only mumbai has slums cities like bangalore kolkata and chennai are mostly free of them
Western media will go on doing this and we will go on blaming them
Only what we can do is making good videos of our cities and upload in youtube and give maximum promotion.
This is the only way by which we can overcome this western propaganda😊😊😊😊
Yea some cool solution these idiots won't stop so we should start our own that would be better
Negative .... Negative chalta hai western media , negative
Hey you forgot to visit, sewage treatment plant and waste disposal area.
The idea of a developed area is always perceived as huge buildings and fancy businesses, which is not always the case.
Today development comes education, productivity and good people in general. Which is exactly whats shown in the video. I don't personally see videos like this about my country everyday.
Good job CNBC!
A video on New york or London should also showcase the ghettos!! I don't know about 665 million dollars but Dharavi does have a striving business community... can we assume the same with New york or London??
Why don't you go to Bandra Kurla complex and Nariman point...
It will show the reality of India which western media has not been shown since ages. To their interest better to show slums rather than skyscrapers
Dude there is no point visiting that places for them , because they can easily find that kind of places in their country,
What i mean to say that they are interested in unique things/places which are only found in India.
Just saying
Those are not poor places
@captain gamers it's one of the richest City is also the reality. They won't show that
@captain gamers first you should look out because they never showed developed parts of mumbai
I don't understand the obsession of western media with dharavi
Where is Mumbai Airport, Mumbai Monorail, Mumbai Metro, Mumbai skyscrapers, Mumbai Bandra Worli Sea Link, Worli skylines, Bandra Kurla complex SEZ Juhu Bandra societies, Navi Mumbai's Kharghar, Vashi, Nerul suburbs, Mumbai's famous Pagoda But only Dharavi slums WHY? WHY? WHY? I want answers why only slums? where is the documentary on Mumbai Ahmedabad Bullet train project? Mumbai Pune Hyperloop Project? Dharavi residential redevelopment project? Navi Mumbai international airport project, Mumbai western sea link connectivity project? where are they? why only slums & slums? I want your answer.
For this question, I suggest you ask your government or prime minister Modi, and they will give you the best answer.
A lot of my fellow Indians are saying he just showed the bad part of India. But in reality he just tried to show what a real india is. The tourists who come to India don't wish to see sky high building or Americanised culture, they already have that. They come to see the Indian culture and I think he did a pretty good job when he didn't show all the garbage with what our streets and roads are filled with.🙏👍
The rest of india is relatively chill and unbusy 🤭🤭🤭
Kevin Lee caught up indian English accent
Like Derek O'Brien did.
India is a bureaucratic paradise....we may have ended license raj but babu raj still thrives , the biggest obstacle for overall development of India is its bureaucracy which is slow and inefficient as it was created by the British to exploit the people of this country . it doesn't matter who is in power BJP or congress until and unless our bureaucratic process does not change, India's economic growth will not be able keep up with its potential
it is time we create a true free market economy
A foreign jurnalist went to Mumbai and missed The slums!!
Have you guyz heard of it 🤔
That journalist has an Indian accent.
Come INDORE India's cleanest city from last two years
With Gujarat after indore 😊😊😊
@@capitalismscholar2375 uh no Navi Mumbai is second. You can check the list if you want.
@@AnkurSingh-uo3wl okay than third whatever makes you happy 😗😗
@@capitalismscholar2375 haha no offense bro.
By wester standards, Indore is still dirty and poor.
Indian millennials have the highest working hours in the world of 54 hours a week, higher than Japan of 46 hours a week, not talking about European countries. So much work time, i hope this pays of in the coming future.
I'm from Brazil and it's Nice to know by the natives commentaries that reality is not only this showed in the video. It's the same thing that midia makes of Brazil, showing only Rio, Carnival, the favelas, half-naked women 🤦♂️
Western media only know slum
Western media show old Delhi
🙏🏼 Art of life in India 🇮🇳
According to CNBC
Slums = Mumbai
Skyscraper = CGI, VFX effects
Very populated ...but really very hard working people and always luffing! Well done
I've always wanted to visit india they are good people.
Also Do Visit North east and Sikkim ... Kerela , Rajasthan Ladakh & Uttrakhand , Punjab(golden temple) , forest of karnatka ... Cyber city Hyderabad , Banglore IT HUB etc etc..
India is more than Delhi & Mumbai .
Going to Mumbai and only showing Dharavi is like me going to New York and just showing Harlem or some poor little place in New York and just skip Manhattan and Times Square all together...
They will keep showing slums, poverty we will exceed them working at bkc, nariman point, navi Mumbai, CBD and other places western media never shows.
Yeah powertrain we will ho through a silent breakthrough
This was the most positive coverage of dharavi I have ever came across in RUclips... Don't know why people are getting mad about?
After few years when these slums will be gone or renovated then, these foreign media will show empty sky, Juhu beach Arabian sea, Rajiv Gandhi national park...
Everyone in the comment is mentioning how this guy is not showing India's bright side: let me tell you this! Cause we see that in every hindi movie and now we want to see this part of India.
I can’t imagine the smell inside the train!
lol
Paul Saha just keepin it real ;-)
G Joeye because they don’t take a bath that’s why they save a lot of money 😂
There are slums and poor areas in western and European countries too, Indians should go in such places and make videos and show this to world
very modern clean and fully developed city, rising superpower india
We also have a slums in Oakland California, Its called homeless encampments .
i love mumbai
U guys should read the relevant comments . It will be of great help when u try to visit an alien place especially like Mumbai.. wish I could show u Mumbai or Bangalore but I assume you guys are done with shooting for it by the time I type this comment... Wish could meet u guys
I get it Dharavi is a thriving part of the city, but its NOT the only part of the city.
P.S. - I have no problem with Western media showing poor side of our country. At least somebody should.
It's a busy city. If I'm an Indian, I have to buy a suite and wait for appreciation
All Western Propaganda... East Or West My Country India Is Best... And I'm Proud Of It... Proud Indian Here✌️☮️👌
... ok, but why you are using a western name?
indias biggest city now a mumbai Delhi Kolkata Chennai and Hyderabad .it is very largest city in india and street food are nice in asia
This guy loves India so much.
I love Mumbai, this is my desire to see it🇵🇰 🇮🇳
4:25 what you all been waiting for
That's why North Korea monitors these foreign journalists.
I don't understand, is Mumbai is only about slums and undeveloped areas , that's quite disappointing
Mohit Kumar Most parts of Mumbai are very devolved, India is just a country where you can walk into a Rolls Royce Dealership and a block away your in one of the most poorest parts of Asia. The difference between wealthy and poor is massive and you see it so much where poor live alongside the wealth.
My friend stays in Mumbai and he works there.i asked him how is Mumbai.he said Mumbai is nasty...
Back then when coronavirus was just a nightmare...
*Mumbai Local exist*
I love India people
They have just explored the places they can afford..:P
I wonder how foreigners always land up in slums and never to beautiful places.. I mean why
Fair and good price to NRI
Happy to see such shopkeepers and proud to be indian jai hind atithi dovo Bhava
Who knows the popular influencer, I need this channel
What I can`t understand, why do my fellow westerners bargain on prices that are already crazy low compare to those what we used to here at home. What`s the point to bargain for about £0.25 discount, why don`t just buy it for 175 rupee, which is about £1.75? You would be happy to pay £10-£12 for that little dress in Camden Town`s (London) similar street market. Or am I wrong?
Our favourite destination where you should visit is Skidrow Los Angeles where over 70000 people are living life like gutter , homeless , litter everywhere.
Once a Chinese man said in Munna Bhai MBBS that he loves poor and hungry Indian and rest is history
I love India
That was very poor shopping and bargaining skills 😂😂😂
U Guys Are nothing but Biased.. U start with Old Delhi and End up in Dharavi.. India is humongous
Come to Lagos, Nigeria. One of the fastest growing cities in Africa with a growth spurt of 77 people per hour.
We would love to!
God bless Africa, love from India
Love Africa .. At least don't back stabbing us :)
I think this is the first time foreign media is showing actual India ! Many times they go to slums or poor . I don’t say there r no poor there r 21million poor but it has been much worse when British left India !
Why Indians are so offended in comments. 50% of mumbai is slum, so they didn't show anything wrong. I'm an Indian too
India has many gems but their cities are not a part of them.
Its hilarious that they have a Punjabi song playing in the intro but didn't even go anywhere north of Delhi
India is sixth largest economy with 3.05 trillion dollar we have 3rd highest no.of billionaires in the world after China and USA . One of the fastest growing economy in the world and uplifted over 300 million people in last 15 years. Asia's richest man in also indian .
India will become the biggest economy soon

So slums area are the best place for tourists in Mumbai
Can’t wait to go in feburary
People complaining about showing daravi and traffics,,
I'm from far rural region say,, still seeing here increasing pollution n traffic problems so it's no surprising for me.
Secondly, seeing daravi here in video it was not at all bad, image is even cleaner n quieter than streets I think, don't know y so much pusss around in comments, guess we indians have a big mouth with gossiping n arguing. U even see how passionately n positively tour guide was sharing about daravi, like people should see more.
Nice next place should be daya basti,shakur. Basti in Delhi??
next time you should come to Varanasi cultural city... and Allahabad for Kumbh mela ...
Amachi Mumbai !
Local train are always crowded in every country
Very Good . Do such more episodes . CNBC need to show Billion people way of life .
All countries hsve their own slums..... India is a beautiful country well mannered people and delicious food.....
Every documentary about india has someone honking their horns. Like damn.
Come to sri lanka tooooo 😃
The dress 👗 for 1 year old baby costs Rs 150 is pretty good deal. I usually avoid to bargain too much with road side vendors. They usually sells their stuffs in very cheap rate.
Dharavi is not just world biggest slums, its contributes more then $5 Billion GDP to INDIA, then any other largest slums for there country
Western media and people comes to india from CHANDNI CHOWK, DELHI and departures from SLUMS OF MUMBAI.
For them India is a country of 1.5 billions people residing in these two places.
They don't go upward to CHANDNI CHOWK & downward to DHARAVI.
- THANKS WESTERNERS.
Why when Indian talk sounds like they eating the words they are saying?
Kevin has became like Indian people...
All you all show is slums and poverty. #DISLIKED.
Hey Tom, it's nice to see you in India covering major cities and culture for International viewers. Well, do u have any plans to visit Hyderabad in Telangana District!! I must say this would be very interesting.
Amazing traditional masala Puri chats and Mumbai explanation
Mumbai is my favourite destination in my life...
Pro tip for anyone looking to go shopping or bargain hunting in Mumbai: please go with a local. Shopkeepers will tend to quote you a higher price if they see you're a foreigner and are w/o someone local.
