Mumbai: Mumbai is witnessing yet another monstrous downpour. The heavy rains on Tuesday have reminded city dwellers of the nightmarish 26 X7 that had brought life to a standstill in 2005. Many parts of the city are water-logged and Mumbai’s lifeline – the suburban train services have been terribly affected.
Bollywood celebrities took to Twitter to tell people to stay indoors and not venture out of their homes. Here’s taking a look at what some of them tweeted:
Wake up Mumbai !! This is the worst monsoon 'nightmare' !!! Just spoke to 2 of my sisters. They almost drowned in Khar West.
