Yeh Hai Mumbai Meri Jaan is a Hindi-language comedy series that aired on Zee TV. The concept of this comedy draws greatly from the city of Mumbai - the melting pot of rural simplicity and urban complexity.[1] [2]

Overview

The story revolves around a simple man, Hariprasad, who comes to Mumbai from a village in Jaunpur to fulfill his dream of becoming a glamour photographer. He has worked very hard to shed his small-town image, anglicised his name from Hariprasad to Harry and hates talking about his past. He tries to act as if he is from a foreign country. The story takes a twist when Hariprasad learns that his cousin, Balkrishna (Balu) is also coming to Mumbai to become a movie star. Sadly, Balu also gets a job where Harry works. Seeing Harry pretend to be a city slicker, Balu tries to expose the truth about his rural origins whenever they are together.
