How to Get Rich? | Musafiri with Richa Chadha | S1E4

Under the shade of a banyan tree, a handful of traders laid the foundations of what would become Asia’s first stock exchange. From that humble beginning, Bombay grew into a financial powerhouse, shaped by global trade, migrant communities, and fortunes built on cotton and opium. In this episode of *Musafiri*, Richa Chadha explores the people and forces behind Mumbai’s rise, from David Sassoon and Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy to Premchand Roychand, whose philanthropy helped shape the city’s schools, hospitals, and landmarks. Through a walk across South Mumbai’s historic streets, she uncovers stories of ambition, generosity, colonial trade, and the communities that made the city their home. But as Mumbai’s past reveals a tradition of giving back, Richa asks a more urgent question: what happens when wealth no longer depends on society, and what responsibility do the richest among us have towards the world they leave behind?
