I grew up in Mumbai. This video reminds me of how the people of Mumbai always hustle. The kids always have a smile on their faces and everyone is hard working and resourceful.
I am from Dharavi.. I m in Dharavi since my born.. I feel proud on dharavi because it's educated slum and highest earning slum.. Dharavi give 1/4 income of Mumbai.. here peoples always stay happy and keep unity any circumstance.. we help each other to grow..
You have such a lovely positive attitude. You are rich in many ways. Many people with money are not happy and people with very little are happy because they focus on family values, enjoying their hard work and having hope. Well done to you. Saying hello from London.
Your humility is something commendable Gabi. Thank you for reminding us to be grateful of what we have as there are people with even less. Hard working people whose efforts don’t even come near to the efforts they put in. Great content and much needed eye-opener in today’s world.

The sense of community they have there is something I wish we had more of here in the US.
Such hard working people, striving to live their lives under such poor conditions. I admire their abilities, their courage and the happiness of the children. Amazing.
Tbh I wasn't going to watch this video going by the title but man, I'm so glad I did. Despite the dirt, smells and the cramped conditions, they are not sitting around and whiling away their time.

Great video mate. You showcased an underserved community without patronizing or vilifying the people and/or the place. You focused on the beauty amongst the chaos. Well done!
I never take my life for granted living in USA.. but this is so nice to see how happy the children in Mumbai can be with so little.. Says alot about their attitude/ and inner being .. It is not what you have .. ... it 's what you make of it and they sure do...🕉☯
Truth! Material goods have a ceiling to happiness. Once someone is acclimated to whatever it is, the novelty wears thin and they have look within to find truth.
I am from India came to America at young age never knew or saw what poverty was or looked like lived a sheltered life now that I see these shows makes me realize how fortunate I am not to live like that took life for granted
People in India work so hard, all the people in the slums are working on something if they where put in a place like Tokyo or USA imagine what they could do. I complain about my life all the time in south Florida but I have to remember I’m blessed
I always think your films are the most authentic of India - I have visited dozens of times. This slum has been there for decades and has become more organised over the years. The sheer numbers of people in a small area is mind blowing. A place of extremes both good and bad 🙏🏻
Love how Gabi just sounds like a traveler and just very real when he speaks. He doesnt sound like those vlogges trying hype something for the views. The Guide is also good. He is not annoying or trying to impress. This slums looks very interesting.
Say hello from Indonesia, I saw a lots video about India by foreigner or our students vlogers who study in India , Salute to our brother India for work hard and do anything good for struggle, hope you always happy and healthy.. Nice filming bro.. Thanks
The people are always smiling. It's incredible to see. People with so little and always smiling. We in the west don't even know we are alive. This is a very humbling video to watch. Probably our waste plastic as well. Profoundly grateful for you uploading this video Gabi....Thank you..
gotta give you credit.i have been multiple times to india. the first time in 1990. i enjoy your videos. good technique. you are not constantly showing yourself like so many youtubers. instead drone shots, talking from the off while filming the surrounding. and talking directly into the camera not too much. good balance and great video work. and the best....your moustache!
I thought this was by another UA-camr but I am glad I watched and listened. Makes me want to travel to even the most wretched places on this planet. What a lovely experience. People just want to live, make a decent living and have peace. May God bless them all. I have no complaints after watching this. Thank you for sharing this experience.
Wow, my country Slovenia is around 20,300 square kilometers and there is 2.1 million of us. No wonder a guy from India once asked me, where are all the people. People of India have such a potential and I think they hold a great future.
That’s actually incredible how much skill and talent there is even just with the few you meet. They deserve so much more for their hard work and really do live to work.
Another insightful video! You bring a humanity to these people who work so hard to survive in this dense overcrowded environment! The children look happy with minimal toys (marble games) as we once did growing up! Thank you for showing us a window into the daily life in the slums! It humbles one to see this and your captured their brief happiness living and working together! Many thx!
the people you meet in the area you visited where so happy, kids are our future, i traveled to Cambodia 25 years ago and fell in love with the locals, selling my business in Australia and starting a few more businesses in Cambodia was my best move ever, employment and education can drive people out of poverty .
Probably one of the best videos. Great guy in Ravi. What I like is that it showcased the thriving business that Dharavi does and provides a livelihood for people.
Its amazing to see how well humanity can survive and thrive in even the most intolerable situations and conditions. The kids were happy and cheerful even with the little bit that they have. Prayers to them wishing them a life that will thrive enough to get out of those living situations and into a more safe and humane lifestyle. 🙏
I am always amazed on how these people of India or Thailand etc that basically have nothing but are always smiling and friendly to foreigners. Just goes prove that money yes can make life better but not always happiness.
What an incredible people these Indian people are......even in the midst of such adversity, they still smile, are still kind and still want to help. I pray their adversities will soon be over and they can enjoy the love and peace we all long for!
Now india population growth is getting slowed and stagnated. Europe population is decreasing note that decreasing population also bring much adversity just like very high rising population. Currently Europe is surviving on influx of immigrants otherwise native European population is decreasing
I don't say this as an criticism, but the fact certain culture or people tend to remain happy in such conditions seems to be the reason why they don't have the motivation to change it.
@@Kouros-y2t u r right sir. They remain happy in that situation that's why they don't want to change cuz they r mediocre people their only hope for change is government

Amazing, incredible and wonderful people who we all need to learn from. i was in Kolkata earlier this year - first time in india - and so many emotions but overwhelming respect for these people of whom many live like this. They are wonderful people and I hope to return soon. Love to all 💖
This isn't just an ordinary slums area like what I see in our country, they are all productive and busy working for their food and other needs. I hope each one of them will have a better life soon 🙏
This guy showing you around really knows his community. He is witty and clever and quite charming. You picked the best person to give you a tour in a very complicated and foreign part of the world. Well done. And you didn't degrade or insult the host country you are in like so many western "vloggers" who travel through slums of poor countries and objectify the locals for views and fun.
Well,not like westerners are angels of justice or something,but it is very good when they're honest about it rather than saying "it is very beautiful to live like this".
@@Kaalabadal1772True. There are many vloggers that sugarcoat everything and their video lacks any substance. While I understand what the op was saying, an honest vlogger is always the best. Show everything, the good and the bad
you found a very smart and decent guide, he knows a lot about the place he lives in, no one reacts negatively to filming, working and living conditions are terrible. In addition, children work is a special problem.
People who live in parts of the world similar to Dharavi, Mumbai must have incredibly strong immune systems to survive there. I wouldn't last long. I feel very fortunate I live in an environment that is so much healthier and cleaner. That river of garbage almost makes me want to cry. It was a healthy river at one point and time.
Evolution at work. Think of all the children who have died in these filthy conditions. Yet they keep breeding more. The river was healthy until careless humans polluted and destroyed it.
Incredible, what a precious and important topic, India has its amazaing sights and also the forgotten Slum area you show us - great video Gabi with your compagnion👍🙏 - endless hard working and poor but mostly friendly people. I have been to India, saw only a glimpse, children, Babies sleeping with mother on the streets....Aww !
I appreciate how you honored the people-highlighting their resourcefulness, industriousness, hustle and heart. Some vloggers and documentary makers present such places through a lens of pity or lack. You maintained the dignity of those living in the slum and showcased the amazing “something” where some might see nothing and held together well the duality of it being both the largest slum but also the most revenue producing.
Brother that's a horrible mindset, that's like saying "well at least i'm not a starving child in Africa", ones problems are unique to oneself, and are dealt with differently considering their upbringing/circumstances.
Lol they are maybe richer than you, These people are not poor These slum people have farm land in their village, it's just Here they are living like this in congested place because They have small businesses Which Is very profitable and with less risk of rules and regulations. Kind of illegal
The direction you went in this video is very beautiful, your impressions expressed so well and with authenticity. I am very interested in what people do and see more and more how all human beings really want the same thing - to be valued and productive and to live as best they can. It’s truly a miracle how people adapt to where they are and still live a life worth living as these people are. 🙏

Really well done Gabi. One of the best videos I've seen. You keep it real. I love that you play with the kids. I visited Mumbai years ago. Well wishes to all from the USA.
An incredibly eye opening video! The people of Dharavi are most enduring and hardworking, making the best of their lives under challenging conditions. 🇨🇦
I'm always amazed at the way others on this earth live. I'm thankful each day for my life and the blessings I have. It puts things in perspective to see other people living so differently from myself, how I couldn't imagine living in their world. . Thank you for taking us on your journey and teaching us a way of life that is alien to our own.
@@Atilla-m9i I don’t know why others believe that Americans have a life of ease. We don’t. We struggle in our own lives and ways. It isn’t a life of all comfort. But it is a great country and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.
Fascinating video and unbelievable how many people live in a small area. I love how industrious they are thanks for sharing this video. I am currently planning a trip to India and this tour looks like a fantastic experience.
The west can learn a thing or two from such Slums. These people are the hardest working, in attrocious conditions & for very little money, yet they're probably happier than people in the west. Thanks for taking us along Gabi, I hope to go myself one day soon.
@@ridewithgabi Take it easy Gabi, hope you're feeling better. You're not on your own in what you suffer. Don't ever forget that. You bring us fantastic video footage. Enjoy your day.
These are very hard working peoples, I agree but to say living in such deplorable conditions & they are happier than most peoples in the western countries ? you must be out of your mind & in denial state of the reality. Are you living in such condition now ? The government of India is corrupt & incompetent otherwise slums like this shouldn't exist in one of the so called largest city of India. If you are an Indian, I guess you must be from the upper caste & poor peoples that lives in the slums makes you feel great & superior. Very disgusting !
happy? poor and happy it's an anesthetic for evil done to those poor citizens by their corrupt and evil government! which is responsible for them. instead they DISTRACT them by making them unleash their rage on innocent helpless INDIAN CHRISTIAN minority instead of their damn government! those criminals are PERSECUTING CHRISTIAN MONORITY IN. MANIPUR. India . have you seen on utube MANIPUR filming of gang raping innocent CHRISTIAN girls paraded naked in the street by Hindus rapists with police turning a blind eye! they burned 300 churches, and killed thousands CHRISTISANS! the hindu rapist brag by filming their gang rapes after killing the Christian father and brother of the victim who tries to protected them. and no one talking about it in anti Christian world media . . OUTRAGEOUS !
I just found your Video today and the way you represented India is so authentic and interesting to see, I am going to India soon and your video made me wanna see India and actually not afraid of going ! Thank you very much cheers
Update about my last month visit to India it was absolute amazing!!! Surely you will get all small things to get annoyed at if you go to the rough part but belive me is an experience of life, I definitely go back again!
This video seemed very respectful. Usually these slum videos are so distasteful and I hate the way they are presented. Good for you for having some humanity.
Incredible tour and these people are amazing in spirit . Beautiful smiles in spite of condition . They seem so welcoming . May god bless them all and thank you for sharing your experience
They work so hard and still in slums for generations. I love that they are productive and making nice things like the clay pots. Those who managed to escape the slums and get jobs in other countries are blessed because they can contribute and lessen the burdens back home.
Hi Gabi. This is a video that stands out compared to others, you show a reality that tourists rarely get to see, so interesting to follow into the neighborhoods where people seem to be born, grow up and work in an extreme environment, you do a great job of conveying the situation to the viewers. Many thanks Gabi Take Care 🫶👏
The guide does a good job and a nice coverage done. Very surprised with the productivity in this large complex and the hard work of people which is great.
@alexandriathe_great: Strange that some people with so much are so miserable. It gives credence to owning nothing and being happy. These people have little but are grateful for what they have.
Great video Gabi! The pan leaf you had contains beetle nut and sometimes tobacco too. It is linked to cancers of the throat and mouth as well as giving you unsightly red gums and teeth - so best avoided. But I can understand why they take it. Credit to the people who live there and work so hard. The place just really needs a good cleanup and some town planning which will make a massive difference. These people deserve this, they are trying to improve their situation and not just giving up. This is where the government should put the effort in on improving the lot of the common man. It is great to send rockets to the far side of the moon and inflate your ego, but how is that helping your countryman?
When we went to Mumbai in India ,it was really shocking to see the slums and how hard the people worked !However they taught us to be thankful and not complain about everything !They are humble,beautiful people and l have so much respect for them !Indian food is of the best cuisine !
Makes you appreciate what you’ve got. You met some lovely people. I can’t imagine how much they’re exploited by the wealthy. Thank you for making this video.
It's unbelievable how some people live in this world and most people don't even know or for that matter don't care and WE ALL take everything for granted one day the world will wake up at least I hope so but unfortunately it's all about greed now days hope your feeling better and may God keep you safe montana ❤️
@@bidyutmanna3900 because india has a sense of COMMUNITY. These capitalistic, western countries are all focused on “self”. They consciousness is seared, like a rock or robot…….I wish to move to somewhere where I feel more at home & sense of community. Edit: in western countries, they will smile in your face but secretly, they don’t really care about others because the demands of western life (taking care of one’s own mortgage, bills like electricity & water, high cost of food & life things, makes everyone ultra “tunnel-vision” focused on one’s own life & survival. Screw America.
@@bidyutmanna3900 I laugh when people from the west say how they are better in terms of richness yet their poor do't even have a home, but one is telling you how you are extremely poor.😂😂😂
Brilliant video thank you for sharing this amazing tour. I have always found dlums very interesting places to be shown. We never know what is going on, so busy and productive.. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
@ 15:42 look at the smiles on their faces and inside their eyes. These kids are happy despite terrible and harsh conditions they live in. I hope they always keetheri happiness and become good people and live in much better conditions.
Well done on this video! We have to be happy with the little that we have! Merely because we have much much much more that these people! God bless them!
This is an incredible experience to behold just amazing how people can subsist and go on about life daily in this place. You definitely need a guide or you would be lost getting around inside there.
...a very mindful walk around a micro cosmos with a powerful infrastructure...where people are trying to keep their lives together in their very own way...🧡
And today’s generation kids says life is hard while going to schools and colleges and living in their homes without working but watching tv and playing video games 😢just be thankful to the god❤
Amazing, great video! You're really a good filmmaker Gabi, I love the way you engage with people. Thank you for your work, it's a wonderful contribute to a better humanity
Wow, i really hope that the powers that be will one day develop this place to give people a better place to stay, no one wants to live in such indignity. We humans can adapt but it doe not mean we don`t long for better. Thanks for sharing this eye-opening video.I have to admit I have wanted to visit India for so long and I'm sure there are other areas
@luckyworldsupreme Actually, how lucky some of us are...for the entirety of Human History, there wasn't air conditioned or heated rooms, worker's rights, first world living standards, clean and developed streets and cities, clean food, water, internet, computer, technology, etc. What we in the West are enjoying is very rare, and only in recent Human History. In fact, even in the 21st century, there are billions of People world wide who have poor living standards, have to work 12 to 16 hours a day 6 days or 7 days a week, no workers rights, dirt poor low wages, and shitty small apartment or shared room. Some of us are lucky. Majority of Humanity from the beginning of civilization to today has not had the luxuries we all enjoy in the 1st world countries today.
@@didarsingh2396 it’s a dump mate, admit it! Proof that most CEO,s are under Indian control?? Please provide here. If they are it just shows that they are even worse than we first thought.

Prayers to them wishing them a life that will thrive enough to get out of those living situations and into a more safe and humane lifestyle. 🙏
I am always amazed on how these people of India or Thailand etc that basically have nothing but are always smiling and friendly to foreigners. Just goes prove that money yes can make life better but not always happiness.
What a naive point of view. You think these people would say no to money if they could have it? Fool.
@Rohan-7499 Wrong. Try again.
Thailand is not that bad imo
@@grtinfulleffect8349 No they are correct. Not even a comparison. Americans with poorness mindset are deluded.
India and thailand is not comparable
What an incredible people these Indian people are......even in the midst of such adversity, they still smile, are still kind and still want to help. I pray their adversities will soon be over and they can enjoy the love and peace we all long for!
This is result of population boom, bad planning and corruption
Now india population growth is getting slowed and stagnated. Europe population is decreasing note that decreasing population also bring much adversity just like very high rising population. Currently Europe is surviving on influx of immigrants otherwise native European population is decreasing
I don't say this as an criticism, but the fact certain culture or people tend to remain happy in such conditions seems to be the reason why they don't have the motivation to change it.
@@Kouros-y2t u r right sir. They remain happy in that situation that's why they don't want to change cuz they r mediocre people their only hope for change is government
They have the love and peace ..A trip to India wakens a westerner up .Happy , friendly and clever :))..
So sad. They are brave men. And the most beautiful men in the world.People are so kind.
The person who guided you has very good sense of humour he deserves to be luxury!! He speaks very good English 💖
I was thinking the same thing his English is excellent
My uncle Apu
Also handsome.
agreed! he's funny, and smart, born in dharavi, he must have worked hard to be where he is!
SIR THIS FAKE PAKISTAN PROPAGANDA ! 😡PLS DELETE ! 😡 ACTUALLY MY INDIA IS THE CLEANEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD 🇮🇳🤗 , WE NEVER SCAM! WE GIVE RESPECT TO ALL WOMEN THEY CAN WALK SAFELY ALONE AT NIGHT AND WE HAVE CLEAN FOOD AND TOILET EVERYWHERE 🇮🇳🤗🚽, I KNOW MANY POOR PEOPLE JEALOUS WITH SUPER RICH INDIA 🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗
Amazing, incredible and wonderful people who we all need to learn from. i was in Kolkata earlier this year - first time in india - and so many emotions but overwhelming respect for these people of whom many live like this. They are wonderful people and I hope to return soon. Love to all 💖
This isn't just an ordinary slums area like what I see in our country, they are all productive and busy working for their food and other needs. I hope each one of them will have a better life soon 🙏
This guy showing you around really knows his community. He is witty and clever and quite charming. You picked the best person to give you a tour in a very complicated and foreign part of the world. Well done. And you didn't degrade or insult the host country you are in like so many western "vloggers" who travel through slums of poor countries and objectify the locals for views and fun.
Well,not like westerners are angels of justice or something,but it is very good when they're honest about it rather than saying "it is very beautiful to live like this".
@@Kaalabadal1772True. There are many vloggers that sugarcoat everything and their video lacks any substance. While I understand what the op was saying, an honest vlogger is always the best. Show everything, the good and the bad
you found a very smart and decent guide, he knows a lot about the place he lives in, no one reacts negatively to filming, working and living conditions are terrible. In addition, children work is a special problem.
And from outside, it looks like a very safe area, no agressive people, or obvious scammers...
I was there in March, as an American it was an eye opening experience. Not at all what I expected. Would like to go back. Indian people were great.
People who live in parts of the world similar to Dharavi, Mumbai must have incredibly strong immune systems to survive there. I wouldn't last long. I feel very fortunate I live in an environment that is so much healthier and cleaner. That river of garbage almost makes me want to cry. It was a healthy river at one point and time.
Like the guy said about the tap water when asked it's ok to drink? "Yes, for the locals, not for you!"
Evolution at work. Think of all the children who have died in these filthy conditions. Yet they keep breeding more. The river was healthy until careless humans polluted and destroyed it.
@@LaurenceDay-d2pyeah THEY polluted it
Incredible, what a precious and important topic, India has its amazaing sights and also the forgotten Slum area you show us - great video Gabi with your compagnion👍🙏 - endless hard working and poor but mostly friendly people. I have been to India, saw only a glimpse, children, Babies sleeping with mother on the streets....Aww !
I appreciate how you honored the people-highlighting their resourcefulness, industriousness, hustle and heart. Some vloggers and documentary makers present such places through a lens of pity or lack. You maintained the dignity of those living in the slum and showcased the amazing “something” where some might see nothing and held together well the duality of it being both the largest slum but also the most revenue producing.
We complain about everything and these people have nothing. I noticed that they all smiled a " Hello ". God Bless them all.
lol just the fact that others have worse problems doesnt make your problems insignificant buddy
@@web3wizard381 of course not but the attitude towards your problem can definetly Change ;)
Brother that's a horrible mindset, that's like saying "well at least i'm not a starving child in Africa", ones problems are unique to oneself, and are dealt with differently considering their upbringing/circumstances.
Lol they are maybe richer than you,
These people are not poor
These slum people have farm land in their village, it's just
Here they are living like this in congested place because
They have small businesses
Which Is very profitable and with less risk of rules and regulations.
Kind of illegal
@@0nlyRemainingit’s not a mindset. It’s reality some people have a worse life than you.
The direction you went in this video is very beautiful, your impressions expressed so well and with authenticity. I am very interested in what people do and see more and more how all human beings really want the same thing - to be valued and productive and to live as best they can. It’s truly a miracle how people adapt to where they are and still live a life worth living as these people are. 🙏
That’s very true… thank you for sharing 🙏🏻
So true and so encouraging ❤️

I just bloody love India and it's people. It's my favourite country to travel in and I can't wait to go back. Incredible India..
Haha welcome
Really well done Gabi. One of the best videos I've seen. You keep it real. I love that you play with the kids. I visited Mumbai years ago. Well wishes to all from the USA.
An incredibly eye opening video! The people of Dharavi are most enduring and hardworking, making the best of their lives under challenging conditions. 🇨🇦
I am from Cameroon. This video has increased my respect for indians once more. The is not a slum. This is an industrial school.
Beautiful Gabi! May you awaken all hearts who cross your path. Bless.
This young man who gave the tour....you are great in showing us the ins and outs of this area...bless you ...
wow. great video. I have been to India twice...on a budget. both times blew my mind...but that was really eye opening, well done. thanks
I'm always amazed at the way others on this earth live. I'm thankful each day for my life and the blessings I have. It puts things in perspective to see other people living so differently from myself, how I couldn't imagine living in their world. . Thank you for taking us on your journey and teaching us a way of life that is alien to our own.
The USA extreme life of convenience and comfort is not good for our health.
@@Atilla-m9i I don’t know why others believe that Americans have a life of ease. We don’t. We struggle in our own lives and ways. It isn’t a life of all comfort. But it is a great country and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.
Fascinating video and unbelievable how many people live in a small area. I love how industrious they are thanks for sharing this video. I am currently planning a trip to India and this tour looks like a fantastic experience.
wow, it is truly an eye opening experience. thanks for sharing Gabi.
The west can learn a thing or two from such Slums. These people are the hardest working, in attrocious conditions & for very little money, yet they're probably happier than people in the west.
Thanks for taking us along Gabi, I hope to go myself one day soon.
That’s very true! Very hard working people
@@ridewithgabi
Take it easy Gabi, hope you're feeling better.
You're not on your own in what you suffer. Don't ever forget that.
You bring us fantastic video footage.
Enjoy your day.
These are very hard working peoples, I agree but to say living in such deplorable conditions & they are happier than most peoples in the western countries ? you must be out of your mind & in denial state of the reality. Are you living in such condition now ? The government of India is corrupt & incompetent otherwise slums like this shouldn't exist in one of the so called largest city of India. If you are an Indian, I guess you must be from the upper caste & poor peoples that lives in the slums makes you feel great & superior. Very disgusting !
Nope Mexico is the hardest working country and every country in the west is happier than India, India ranks 128 in happiness
happy? poor and happy it's an anesthetic for evil done to those poor citizens by their corrupt and evil government! which is responsible for them. instead they DISTRACT them by making them unleash their rage on innocent helpless INDIAN CHRISTIAN minority instead of their damn government! those criminals are PERSECUTING CHRISTIAN MONORITY IN. MANIPUR. India . have you seen on utube MANIPUR filming of gang raping innocent CHRISTIAN girls paraded naked in the street by Hindus rapists with police turning a blind eye! they burned 300 churches, and killed thousands CHRISTISANS!
the hindu rapist brag by filming their gang rapes after killing the Christian father and brother of the victim who tries to protected them. and no one talking about it in anti Christian world media .
. OUTRAGEOUS !
I just found your Video today and the way you represented India is so authentic and interesting to see, I am going to India soon and your video made me wanna see India and actually not afraid of going ! Thank you very much cheers
Update about my last month visit to India it was absolute amazing!!! Surely you will get all small things to get annoyed at if you go to the rough part but belive me is an experience of life, I definitely go back again!
This video seemed very respectful. Usually these slum videos are so distasteful and I hate the way they are presented. Good for you for having some humanity.
Incredible tour and these people are amazing in spirit . Beautiful smiles in spite of condition . They seem so welcoming . May god bless them all and thank you for sharing your experience
Excellent presentation. Authentic and nonjudgmental. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this. Thank you.
Such hardworking group of people, smiling, they have feel of community, ❤🙏🏽
i didnt see any of that in the video. they all look miserable. nice try though
They're poor 😂
They work so hard and still in slums for generations. I love that they are productive and making nice things like the clay pots. Those who managed to escape the slums and get jobs in other countries are blessed because they can contribute and lessen the burdens back home.
Hi Gabi. This is a video that stands out compared to others, you show a reality that tourists rarely get to see, so interesting to follow into the neighborhoods where people seem to be born, grow up and work in an extreme environment, you do a great job of conveying the situation to the viewers. Many thanks Gabi Take Care 🫶👏
Thank you 😉 I am happy that you enjoyed this video
Thank you 😉 I am happy that you enjoyed this video

The guide does a good job and a nice coverage done. Very surprised with the productivity in this large complex and the hard work of people which is great.
These kids are so happy! It’s amazing, with so little. They are all so cute and polite. Wonderful to see❤
I hope to see the slum make software and electronics boards someday the same way
Greetings from Egypt ❤ salute to the hard working people from the slums ❤some people are rich put not as happy as they are
@alexandriathe_great: Strange that some people with so much are so miserable. It gives credence to owning nothing and being happy. These people have little but are grateful for what they have.
I was expecting to see something like Skid Row in Philadelphia, Seattle or Vancouver . . but these people are alive, loving and caring
Right? Even in places with plenty of resources in our country, people act more like animals than these people
No time for drugs,
@@sharonsmith1505
It seams that people born into this way of life seem to accept it and don’t feel deprived. Everyone works!
Great video Gabi! The pan leaf you had contains beetle nut and sometimes tobacco too. It is linked to cancers of the throat and mouth as well as giving you unsightly red gums and teeth - so best avoided. But I can understand why they take it. Credit to the people who live there and work so hard. The place just really needs a good cleanup and some town planning which will make a massive difference. These people deserve this, they are trying to improve their situation and not just giving up. This is where the government should put the effort in on improving the lot of the common man. It is great to send rockets to the far side of the moon and inflate your ego, but how is that helping your countryman?
Betel nut.
So is burnt toast but we all still eat in
@@latbeast Tobacco is not the same as burnt toast. Regardless of whether it's an expensive premium cigarette or streetside paan
When we went to Mumbai in India ,it was really shocking to see the slums and how hard the people worked !However they taught us to be thankful and not complain about everything !They are humble,beautiful people and l have so much respect for them !Indian food is of the best cuisine !
Makes you appreciate what you’ve got. You met some lovely people. I can’t imagine how much they’re exploited by the wealthy. Thank you for making this video.
It's unbelievable how some people live in this world and most people don't even know or for that matter don't care and WE ALL take everything for granted one day the world will wake up at least I hope so but unfortunately it's all about greed now days hope your feeling better and may God keep you safe montana ❤️
Just like the homeless people in LA, Newyork, Vancouver live on the streets with drug.... Atleast in India poor people have home called slum.
@@bidyutmanna3900 because india has a sense of COMMUNITY. These capitalistic, western countries are all focused on “self”. They consciousness is seared, like a rock or robot…….I wish to move to somewhere where I feel more at home & sense of community. Edit: in western countries, they will smile in your face but secretly, they don’t really care about others because the demands of western life (taking care of one’s own mortgage, bills like electricity & water, high cost of food & life things, makes everyone ultra “tunnel-vision” focused on one’s own life & survival. Screw America.
@@bidyutmanna3900 I laugh when people from the west say how they are better in terms of richness yet their poor do't even have a home, but one is telling you how you are extremely poor.😂😂😂
@@bidyutmanna3900 panjeet shat street
No wonder they try and emigrate to the UK! They live in crap hole
No matter where you go in India you encounter the friendliest and most hospitable people.
indeed, and the case in many harsh economic areas in so many nations, maybe it's the fact that sun shines so much...
The USA should import more hard-working people from India, and fewer criminal illegals and drug dealers from Mexico.
😂😂😂😂
Brilliant video thank you for sharing this amazing tour. I have always found dlums very interesting places to be shown. We never know what is going on, so busy and productive.. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Did I mention how inspiring this video is! Working 12 hours a day without complaining whow! I am truly inspired by their skills and crafts.
They are working 12 hours because they have no choice! The county is a doss hole
@ 15:42 look at the smiles on their faces and inside their eyes. These kids are happy despite terrible and harsh conditions they live in. I hope they always keetheri happiness and become good people and live in much better conditions.
Well done on this video! We have to be happy with the little that we have! Merely because we have much much much more that these people! God bless them!
This is an incredible experience to behold just amazing how people can subsist and go on about life daily in this place. You definitely need a guide or you would be lost getting around inside there.
...a very mindful walk around a micro cosmos with a powerful infrastructure...where people are trying to keep their lives together in their very own way...🧡
I never see this side off india ...it's amazing ,...iam glad for video, thanks so much
I hope this inspires you to feel better eventually, Gabi.
I love the children, they are so cool and friendly. This goes for any country.
Thankyou for the video, Sir❤. They are so humble. And all the hard work they do. It is totally intriguing. 🙏🇦🇺❤
Wow! What an amazing video. I’ve been to India but never saw this slum. Thank you for taking us on this journey. Hope you are doing well these days. 💜
happy to hear that Patricia.. thanks for your words
Come to Hyderabad...
South India.😊
Great video man. It really puts things into perspective seeing this kind of place. The experience must have been so intense for you.
yes it does... it was pretty intense yes
Great job! I appreciate how respectful and appreciative you are of these fine people, different than us, but all part of the World Family.
2 million people living in that slum?😮 Holy cow,that's a large size city in Europe! Is this also the world's biggest slum?
Yes that’s crazy. It’s actually the 4th or 5th biggest slum in the world
@@ridewithgabi I think the biggest slum is in Sao Paolo
@@ridewithgabi3 biggest slum in world
"Holy cow" is correct.
@@Trishj1001no the biggest slum isn’t in Brazil, it’s in Orangi Town, Karachi, Pakistan
And today’s generation kids says life is hard while going to schools and colleges and living in their homes without working but watching tv and playing video games 😢just be thankful to the god❤
And the kids suffering? Should they also be thankful?
there is no god, there wouldn't be so much injustice if there was one.
Thank you so much. What an amazing tour. Ravi was great.
Amazing, great video! You're really a good filmmaker Gabi, I love the way you engage with people. Thank you for your work, it's a wonderful contribute to a better humanity
Wow, i really hope that the powers that be will one day develop this place to give people a better place to stay, no one wants to live in such indignity.
We humans can adapt but it doe not mean we don`t long for better.
Thanks for sharing this eye-opening video.I have to admit I have wanted to visit India for so long and I'm sure there are other areas
"We humans can adapt but it doe not mean we don`t long for better." Well said..💯
Yes it develop very soon government already give tender to develop it to Adani company
I like how Indians are so skilled❤❤
I'm always in awe of the hard working people from India. They are Supermen. I respect them and pray for them.
Bloody freak. Be an ATHEIST. There's nothing like a God.
Just shows how lucky most of us are...
It’s not luck, it’s white western civilization
@luckyworldsupreme
Actually, how lucky some of us are...for the entirety of Human History, there wasn't air conditioned or heated rooms, worker's rights, first world living standards, clean and developed streets and cities, clean food, water, internet, computer, technology, etc.
What we in the West are enjoying is very rare, and only in recent Human History.
In fact, even in the 21st century, there are billions of People world wide who have poor living standards, have to work 12 to 16 hours a day 6 days or 7 days a week, no workers rights, dirt poor low wages, and shitty small apartment or shared room.
Some of us are lucky. Majority of Humanity from the beginning of civilization to today has not had the luxuries we all enjoy in the 1st world countries today.
India was always the worst country
Not lucky,I think we are learning by the mistakes that some of these countries are making like slums, war's and breeding like rabbits
