help with hindi word

Hi all
can you help me (again.... )
My daughter is doing a project on Mumbai (primary school) and we thought it would be nice to put 'Mumbai' also in Hindi characters on the cover.

Does anyone know how it is written?
Stand tall, smile bright, and let them wonder what secret's making you laugh

Both are right, the later is more of the 'keyboard' version.

Surely it should be written in Marathi, the language of Maharashtra.

Please look at this thread, even if you are not in India.: Have you seen Jonathan Spollen?

He could be anywhere now: You might have met him, be able to help, or give information.

I landed on this page while searching for Mumbadevi Temple in Mumbai. Surprisingly the link you've given above gives out an error.

http://www.magicalmumbai.com/1263/mu...temple-mumbai/

Im doing an assignment for my son and had to include Mumbadevi temple. Infact I am even considering on taking my son to visit the temple as it is close to our house.
