From Dharavi to Bollywood: Jameel Shah's Journey As An Entrepreneur


Frustrated with things around young Shah decided to flee and hopped on to a train that took him to Delhi. In Delhi, Shah worked in a garment factory that manufactured wallets and belts. He learnt his work quickly and during free times he sat before a TV watching bollywood cinemas and fantasizing on becoming a top notch choreographer in bollywood.  

Shah always kept dance close to his heart and worked towards it but when he realized that Delhi will do no good to him he decided to move on and chose Mumbai this time.

At Dharavi

Mumbai, as popularly known as the city of dreams, had nothing much to offer him, except a job in a local garment factory with lots of hope, passion and commitment. While everything was working fine a disaster struck Shah, he had loaned out 2000 to his friend who absconded which left him with no money altogether.
