ABSTRACT
In a small apartment in the sprawling suburbs of Mumbai, the financial capital of India, 35-year-old George Varkey wakes at dawn to the sound of his newborn baby's uneven breathing. Already the apartment is hot and humid, the air stirred rather than cooled by small electric fans. His wife, Binnie, is preparing breakfast. His elderly parents, four-yearold son, and younger brother are all still in bed. George is keen to be ready early. Today a news team from the BBC in London is coming to visit. 1
