Mumbai Musings II

Another common sight in many metros and Indian cities today! The water-tank-retro-looks is a perfect 'Out-Of-Home' media. It just needs a little bit of added design touch to make it retro-cool and you invent another medium to show-case brands from apparel to lifestyle to Bollywood movies:-)
