The heavy rainfall, which began in the late evening of June 23, led to widespread waterlogging, with roads turning into rivers and traffic grinding to a halt. The Andheri area was particularly affected, as the underpass (subway) in the neighborhood became completely flooded. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) closed the underpass for safety reasons, citing the risk of accidents due to the rising water levels. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a heavy rainfall alert for Mumbai, warning of continued moderate to heavy showers throughout June 24. The monsoon, which arrived in Mumbai on June 23, was 13 days later than its usual arrival date of June 10. This delay has raised concerns about the city’s preparedness for the annual monsoon season, as waterlogging and traffic disruptions have already begun. Rainfall measurements recorded during the storm showed that areas like Nair Hospital in central Mumbai received 78.96 millimeters of rain between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. on June 23. The IMD also issued orange alerts for several districts in Maharashtra, including Thane, Raigad, Palghar, and Sindhudurg, warning of potential heavy rainfall and its impact on infrastructure.#mumbai #bmc #andheri #imd #nair_hospital https://www.aajtak.in/india/maharashtra/story/monsoon-hits-mumbai-heavy-rain-waterlogged-andheri-area-imd-rainfall-alert-maharashtra-weather-forecast-mumbai-mausam-szlbs-rpti-2585930-2026-06-24

Lights, camera, crisis: Bollywood’s behind-the-scenes workers struggle amid slowdown Many workers within the industry say the slowdown has been unfolding for several months. A significant number of workers say they are either receiving very little work or being paid substantially less than before. Many claimed that even when projects are available, their earnings have fallen by nearly 50 to 60 per cent compared to previous years. The real burden is being carried by the thousands of workers behind the scenes who keep the industry functioning on a daily basis. Character actors, assistant directors, makeup artists, personal gym trainers attached to actors, lightmen, camera crews, spot boys, production assistants, editors, equipment vendors, and technical staff are among those facing the hardest impact. Most of them rely entirely on daily shoots and project-based income. Once productions slow down, their earnings disappear almost instantly. Film budgets are shrinking, digital platforms have become more cautious with spending, and producers are postponing projects amid uncertainty in the market. As a result, junior and mid-level workers are struggling to find regular employment. The crisis becomes even harsher in Mumbai, where the cost of living is already among the highest in the country. Most production companies, casting agencies, and entertainment offices operate from areas such as Andheri, Juhu, and Bandra. Renting even a small apartment in these localities can cost nearly ₹50,000 a month, and often even more. For workers whose income has been reduced by half, managing daily life in the city is turning into a constant struggle. Several technicians and support workers are reportedly exhausting their savings, borrowing from relatives and friends, or taking up temporary side jobs simply to cover rent and household costs.#bollywood #mumbai #juhu #bandra #andheri
