"Mumbai walo zara sambhalke!": Jackie Shroff urges Mumbaikars to stay safe during Mumbai's heavy rains
Mumbai, July 4
Amid relentless heavy rainfall in Mumbai, actor Jackie Shroff urged Mumbaikars to prioritise their safety and take all necessary precautions.
He shared a video from inside a moving car, showing rainwater accumulating on the roads as heavy showers lashed Mumbai.
"Mumbai walo zara sambhalke! #staysafe," he captioned the post.
Heavy rainfall often leads to several incidents, making it essential for residents to remain cautious and take necessary precautions while commuting.
Recently, actor Kshitij Dholakia, best known as the son of actress Urvashi Dholakia, revealed that a massive tree fell on his car amid the heavy rains.
Sharing the incident on social media, he assured everyone that no one was injured and that he was safe. He also expressed gratitude to the Mumbai Police and the fire brigade for their prompt response and assistance.

Good message from Jackie Sir. Mumbaikars know how to handle monsoon chaos but still these reminders are important. Stay safe everyone! ❤️
Respect for Jackie Shroff but frankly, these Bollywood posts don't solve ground issues. In Andheri, water logging was waist-deep yesterday. We need better urban planning, not just safety tips from stars. Kshitij Dholakia's incident was scary though - glad he's okay.
Moved to Mumbai from Canada two years ago and monsoon madness still surprises me. Jackie's reminder is sweet but I've learned to check weather apps hourly in July! Stay safe, Mumbai.
"Mumbai walo zara sambhalke" - classic Jackie style! 😂 But on serious note, tree falling on car is nightmare material. Thankful Mumbai Police and fire brigade are always on their toes during rains. Salute to our first responders!
I appreciate the sentiment but why do we always need celebrities to speak up for basic civic issues? BMC needs accountability. Every monsoon, same waterlogging, same fallen trees, same chaos. Jackie bhai ka do saal pehle ka post bhi dekha - nothing changed.
