The city also houses India's Hindi film and television industry, known as Bollywood. Mumbai's business opportunities, as well as its potential to offer a higher standard of living, attract migrants from all over India and, in turn, make the city a potpourri of many communities and cultures.

So you can't say Mumbai is only for Marathis..

What I feel that the government of India should make Mumbai a Union territory or state like Delhi..
Good analysis.. I must say..
