A Quote by Anubhav Sinha

Bombay is far ahead of Bengal in the matter of female education. I have visited some of the best schools in Bengal and Bombay, and I can say from my own experience that there are a larger number of girls receiving public education in Bombay than in Bengal; but while Bengal has not come up to Bombay as far as regarded extent of education, Bengal is not behind Bombay in the matter of solidarity and depth.

A city like Bombay, like New York, that is a recent creation on the planet and does not have a substantial indigenous population, is full of restless people.

As I have discovered, having once moved, it is difficult to stop moving.

In 'The Trip,' I play the character named Ananya Makhija, a Delhi girl who wants to get married.
