Playwright @BoodhuRamu spends an entire day with Babasaheb on 14 April - his 135th Birth Anniversary - at some of the known and not so known addresses in the city. He takes a look at how Bombay shaped Babasaheb. As you go through the photo-essay you realise how the city provided a stage for Dr Ambedkar. A thread.
