When Aastha Choudhary moved to Mira Road five years ago, the thought of commuting by rail and dealing with a perpetually crowded station irked her. The artist found some solace in the ladies special train in the morning where crowds were manageable. And as time passed, the artist realised that strangely, this was an avenue where she could draw in peace. But her commute was also where new friendships and fascination with her worked bloomed. The outcome is now apparent in a zine that Choudhary released last month, titled Mumbai Local & Ladies Dabba.
