Wishes steeped in history

Thinking of your colleagues when you sip a cup of chai in isolation? Want to reach out to your loved ones and ensure they are safe? Whatever it is that you want to say during times of quarantine, Dr Bhau Daji Lad Mumbai City Museum has a card for you. There's one with a teacup from their collection, and another with a shield to signify safety. There's also one that you can use to thank essential workers. "Quarantine cards reimagine the collection to make it relevant for today. We have all been social distancing from our friends and families and will continue to do so for a while. This is a way to let them know we are thinking about them. These cards signal a ray of hope that we are all in this together and will come out with greater appreciation for the simple things we take for granted," says Tasneem Zakaria Mehta, honorary director and managing trustee, Dr Bhau Daji Lad City Museum.
