Mumbaiyya and Mumbaikar
Mumbaikar, The person who stays in Mumbai is called Mumbaikar. This name generated when Bombay was renamed Mumbai, the Bombayites became Mumbaikars instead of Mumbaites. It is a complete Swadeshi transformation of the name. Many of the Marathi surnames end in 'Kar' showing originating place of the person, the same theory was applied here.
Typical Mumbaikar is very easy going person who mixes up with crowd and interacts with others in local slang of Hindi (Mumbaiyya), This interaction is normally seen in public transport and street.
The personality of Mumbaikar is mistaken with rudeness (Reader's Digest Survey) due to the language used in common i.e. Mumbaiyya. Commonly strangers are called 'Boss' or with a noise made with lips called 'Mucchh'. Although ladies are always respected and called Madam or Bhen-ji. The life of Mumbaikar is very tightly scheduled according to Railway Time-table. Any effect on world or surroundings never matter for Mumbaikar. The day always begins with the first Local and ends with a last local (train).
Contradicting to the Reader's Digest Survey, Mumbaikar will always help in calamities, Man-made or natural, he will always tip you about stock market, He'll always guide Tourists to Crawford Market, down town, and best food Joints. He will offer the staple food ofvada pav and pav bhaji.
