THE PENSIVE PRINCE: Prince Charles gazes at the Mumbai skyline in the distance from Oberoi Towers Hotel where a reception was held to allow him to meet some luminaries of India's business community.

Later, he paid a visit to the over a century-old Victoria Terminus, a prominent landmark of Mumbai. He also met with Mumbai famous dabbawallahs.

Ironically, the heir to the British throne also gave a clap to the mahurat shot of a Bollywood film on Mangal Pandey, the Indian sepoy who revolted against the British empire's mighty East India Company. The film stars Aamir Khan and Aishwarya Rai.

The Prince has won many a heart during his current visit. "The most important thing is to have concern for people. It's a fascinating job and I'm looking forward to the future," he is aptly quoted as saying on the official Web site of HRH, the Prince of Wales.
