Sena vs Sena, Thackeray vs Deora Battle For Worli In Maharashtra Election

Home to some of India's wealthiest men and women, the Worli skyline is marked by high-rises and thriving business hubs, but it also contains dilapidated chawls awaiting redevelopment.

A blockbuster political battle brews in Mumbai - Bollywood's beating heart - with Aaditya Thackeray, the popular son of Shiv Sena boss Uddhav Thackeray, set to fight charismatic ex Congress MP Milind Deora, who jumped from that party to Eknath Shinde's breakaway Sena faction in January.

The Shinde Sena confirmed Mr Deora's candidature Friday morning, a day after Mr Thackeray's party said he would defend his seat.

The two will also face-off against Sandeep Deshpande of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena of Raj Thackeray, who is Uddhav Thackeray's cousin.
