Nikhil Madhok attending the screening said: “I want to thank Dr Narayani and everyone here for having us at Fortis Hospital and giving us an opportunity to share ‘Mumbai Diaries’ with you. We felt that this is the story we really want to tell with a lot of sensitivity and authenticity.”
He added: “As we started writing the series and creating these beautiful characters who have been brought to life by this talented cast, we started realising this is more than just a tragic event, it is about the doctors, the nurses, the medical staff who put aside their personal traumas, their professional issues and so selflessly served the city."
“How they just had to be there in the moment helping everybody and that's such a remarkable spirit. We’re honoured to be able to showcase this series here today and excited to premiere it to our customers across the world tomorrow.”
