New Delhi:

Rupali Ganguly of Anupamaa fame recently lashed out at BMC over the traffic chaos and haphazard management outside Film City, Mumbai. She called them out as her journey to Film City, which is about 14 km, took twice her usual time. Expressing her frustration, the actress suggested certain responsible measures that the BMC should take to control the traffic.

What's Happening

  • Rupali Ganguly was unhappy with the "haphazard" functioning of the BMC, which caused her journey to her set in Film City, Mumbai, to take 2.5 hours.
  • The situation was further worsened due to metro construction in the city, which the actress suggested should take place during early morning hours between 3 AM and 4 AM to avoid traffic jams.
  • The actress, who took a rickshaw to Film City, shared a clip of the traffic chaos on her X feed and wrote, "Still stuck for over 1 hour now outside Film City! For a 14 km distance, it takes me 2 hours to get home at night, and mornings usually 1 hour, but because of @mybmc's haphazard functioning, it took me 2 and a half hours to get to my set!! Stop taking #mumbaikars for granted @mybmc!!!!"
  • She added, "I have been waiting outside Film City. Now there is some metro construction going on outside Film City. And this so-called management of the Metro, the BMC, whoever is responsible, had to get such a big container. Half the road is anyway blocked because of it. If they had to bring this, they should have done it at 3 AM-4 AM. Not at a time when everybody is going to work. At 10 AM!"
  • She also shared the video on Instagram and wrote, "Stuck for over 1 hour now!!! BMC, you are the most disorganised and literally the pits! Stop taking the public for granted."
