They say it was Charlie Chaplin who said, ‘He who feeds a hungry animal feeds his own soul’. He sure knew what he was talking about. Just ask the ‘stray’ feeders of Bombay, a few well-known, well-placed among the milieu, who take time out of their busy schedules to give food and aid to the hungry souls who walk on four legs and fly up above.
