A child sleeps in a makeshift cradle as a homeless boy sleeps on the pavement in Mumbai December 3, 2009. Economic growth has changed the lives of many Indians, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the city once known as Bombay. Many of India's billionaires live in the city, but abject poverty and creaky infrastructure remain a sharp counterpoint to its aspirational gleam and glitz.
