RICHARD BRANSON

It was now the turn of the high-flier uk billionaire Richard Branson who took some time out to bond with the now world-famous dabbawallas at churchgate station.He got into the local train at andheri and travelled with them all the way to churchgate enquiring aboout their modus operandi.Little did the dabbawallas then realise that they were the objects of admiration by yet another vip.When Richard B ranson got off at Churchgate and was welcomed by a huge crowd of presswallas did they realise that they had brushed shoulders with a uk billionaire.Clad in a white pyjama,blue tshirt and a gandhicap on his head and also a sleek dabba with virgin atlantic inscribed across it in hand,Richard Branson literally stepped into the kolhapuri chappals of the dabbawallas."It is always good to experience the local flavour of the city with the local people rather than sitting in a hotel".He then rode in a victoria buggy and later played cricket at the oval maidan
