## Transcript

>> We're not protesting or we're not rebelling or anything like that. Just raising a few questions about our safety and things like that. It's just like a normal question that comes to a normal person's mind. A bunch of guys who just came together and we just all joined hands and next to another doing something extraordinary. So, I guess everybody is asking these questions.

>> We want to express solidarity to the people of Mumbai and we want things to change that's why we're all here.

>> This is a very clear message to whoever has done it. There's no way they'll ever, ever bomb any rate. They can go on and on and on trying. End of the day, they'll be the losers, whoever has done this, which is not so unclear, I guess.

>> Eventually, there is a lot of anger among-- I've been here since birth.

>> Yeah.

>> And nothing can break the spirit of the city. Nobody can ever do that.

>> We need to show united front against these events because the thing they want is to propagate fear and we're not gonna let them affect us so adversely. I think now we realize how each and every person matters mostly and it's not the elite class, the middle class, it's Mumbai as a whole. And I think it's hit home really hard to everybody right now.

>> Yeah.

>> I mean it's not like we haven't had these events in the past. We've had the train blast, but every sector now has been affected and I think this time we will actually react as a whole.

>> And this time, these are places that-- where it's connected with us because these are places which we could have been at.

>> We never thought it would have happened, you know. Life was so calm [ unk ] and came back and I was about to hit the bed and all this happened. It was really sad.

>> Terror has no eyes. It has no name. It has got no feelings. There's no use of showing them anything in life. They are so much brainwashed. They don't have their own soul for them.

>> They're not fighting religion. It is not a person they are fighting or an individual they are fighting. They're not fighting jihad. They are fighting terrorism. Terrorism itself is a religion. I've lived all my life in Mumbai. We were grown up in Mumbai. I've lived in Mumbai, enjoyed Mumbai, but at the moment, totally frustrating. Maybe time will take care of it, but what about the moment? We had grown so much and now we're going back. Why? Why? Because our whole government and the administration is totally ineffective. I've lost a very dear friend's husband. It is absolutely tragic. I think it is really tragic and I'm glad we are doing something.

I hope this is going to carry on, it's not gonna be a one- night episode.
