For the outsider, Mumbai means Marine Drive and South Bombay. For anyone who has lived long enough in the city, they know that Dadar is the heart of the city which beats endlessly. This week, starting a new series, Exploring your Backyard, we tell you how this iconic neighbourhood has shaped the country in ways you would not have imagined. Or how Dadar in a unique way played a role in national integration in the 70's and 80's. But what you probably don't know is Dadar's connection to outer space. Tune in, to understand why it's important to explore our own backyards, and how a piece of Dadar history floats endlessly in space.
