Superstar Shah Rukh Khan unveiled a heritage postage stamp for the Bandra railway station recently. Predictably, crowds went berserk on Friday when he visited. The station was immortalised completing 130 years.

The postage stamp is certainly welcome and a way to keep heritage city infrastructure alive. Often, heritage or historical is seen as esoteric and out of reach. The common man feels a disconnect with these buildings, at times even intimidated by the tag. So, when a city station gets a postage stamp commemorating it, it serves as bringing the layperson closer to the heritage that is accessible and around them in the city.
