The death of Shiv Sena supremo Balasaheb Thackeray has now become one of the most talked-about chapters in the history of 21st century India.

In a city like Mumbai which is as unrelenting as a nuclear chain reaction was rendered to an astounding halt by death of the patriarch of the Thackeray family. The occurrence itself enlightens the fact that persona of Balasaheb was mightier than the nuclear power too. In this post, I elaborate the times of Mumbai with Balasaheb’s advent and how Balasaheb emerged as the Godfather of the financial capital of India.
