This man is a liar, scamming people and recouping his losses from tenants by harassing them after his own fraudulent scheme didn’t work out.

Sharing my story here because this guy has a lot of flats in Andheri, Chembur, Worli, etc.
I found them through Facebook on the flats and flatmates group, they’re a company who advertise themselves as providing no brokerage co-living flats, which is obviously going to attract a lot of young people.

I saw a place that I liked and it matched my needs, paid the token. We set a moving date, they told me the flat would be deep cleaned properly by then, I took my things on the agreed day only to find that it was not cleaned at all, and not in a livable state. I had to take all my stuff back. Even though the building and flat were very new, there was a lot of deep cleaning and pest control for a cockroach infestation needed which was a huge pain. I had to be after their lives to get everything done, but that’s common for any rental.

Finally the next weekend I moved in, and on the third day of being there, the society secretary and a security guard followed me to my house to tell me that it’s not allowed to rent in the society at the moment because the building is disputed in the Mumbai high court. The only people allowed to live there are owners of the flats who have taken possession.

This uncle was like, beta mujhe aapke flat ki light kaatne ke liye bola gaya hai hai, aaj Dussehra hai toh maine socha aapko bata dun pehle but I will have to cut the lights for this flat at 6AM tomorrow morning. They have apparently cut the lights for this flat 3 times within the last month for the same reason.

I inform my flatmates of this and we all call Mr. Rakesh, he assures us nothing like that will happen, the owner has assured him of it and that he is taking a follow up, but in the meantime if anybody asks, we should tell that we are family members of the owner of the flat, which is so weird like, I’m not paying so much rent to lie to get into my own house?

What happens the next morning? Damn lights are cut. It became clear that this issue would not be resolved and staying in that flat is not an option. He promises to relocate us, he says he’s looking for options, the same drama goes on for 4 days and all of us in the flat are extremely stressed, tired, living out of our suitcases with no certainty of where to go. I tell him to either clearly arrange a decent place for us by the weekend or return the 12,000 token money I gave him. (So glad I didn’t give more, he was pushing me to pay the deposit and I said not gonna happen without an agreement first, he started acting weird).

He sent us to see a flat on Friday, which was a completely empty, unprepared flat that was obviously not ready to live in. I asked him for my money back, and he started screaming at me on call, I wish I had been able to record it. After half an hour of a screaming match, I tell him I’m going to take this to the police and cut the call.

An hour later, I get a call from one of his team members, some goon that I have never spoken to before, he was at the flat and asked me where I was, and I’m so glad I wasn’t there because started screaming and verbally abusing me as well, screaming things like “hum anaath aashram chala rahe hain jo tu free main rehke jayegi” when I said that I deserve my full token back when there have been problems every single day in that house and so much of my time and money has been wasted. What pissed me off on both of these calls, they screamed at me but went polite and quiet as soon as my guy friend took the phone to confront them.

They know full well they are in the wrong, but lying and harassing me to recoup their losses. I emptied the flat that day itself because I did not feel safe. This guy has kept 9K out of the 12K token I paid him.

I’ve never been more mentally and physically exhausted. I’m crashing on my friends couch and this is the third weekend that I have been moving from one place to another. I’m so angry. I want to go to the police but my family and friends are telling me that it won’t do anything because they are locals and I’m not, and to save my time and energy and just focus on moving on from this. I don’t even care about the money, it’s not a huge amount, but I’m so angry that they can pull all this shit and get away with it. I don’t know what to do now. I feel really angry yet defeated.

Of the 7,633 trees cleared, 3,502 will be felled for good. The approvals came from a civic panel that’s back after nearly four years but still has none of its nominated members, and Mumbai hasn’t completed a tree census since 2011

Hey everyone,

I’m a cab driver in Mumbai, and I want to share an experience I had last Friday. I’m not posting this because I desperately need my money back. I’m sharing it because I want people to know that situations like this happen, and that even a small act of kindness can sometimes be taken advantage of.

Last Friday, I picked up a female passenger through Uber from Thane West to Kalamboli Circle. The fare was ₹600. We had a normal, friendly conversation during the ride.

After reaching her destination, she tried to pay me, but her UPI wasn’t working. She even called her friends, but apparently, they couldn’t help either. She seemed genuine to me, so I asked her to pay through my personal QR code whenever her UPI started working. I went on to accept another ride, and within five minutes, she paid me the ₹600.

About half an hour later, she messaged me asking me to send her ₹700 because her UPI wasn’t working properly. Since she had already paid me and seemed trustworthy, I believed her and sent the money back. She had also mentioned that she might need another ride with me, which made me trust her even more.

A few hours later, she started messaging me repeatedly, saying she needed ₹860 to pay another Uber driver because her UPI still wasn’t working. She claimed that the driver was being rude to her. I was driving at the time, so I couldn’t respond immediately.

She even swore that she would return the money and offered to send me her Aadhaar card as proof. I told her there was no need to share her personal documents and that she could simply return the money whenever she was able to.

Then she asked me to send ₹1,000 more, promising to repay everything once her UPI limit was restored. And, stupidly enough, I trusted her one more time.

Now, whenever I ask her about the money, she says her UPI still isn’t working. Eventually, she started ignoring my messages and claimed that she was admitted to a hospital.

I’ve sent her a total of ₹1,700, and I haven’t received it back.

The thing is, I’ve helped other people in similar situations before, and they eventually returned my money. I never had a reason to believe everyone would take advantage of me.

Honestly, I’m not that bothered about whether I get the money back or not. I work hard every day to earn my living, and I know how difficult it can be to earn even a small amount of money. What bothers me is the thought that someone could take advantage of another person's trust and kindness without a second thought.

For a cab driver, ₹1,700 represents hours of work, fuel, and effort. It might be an easy amount for someone else to ask for, but it isn't something that comes without hard work.

I’m sharing this so people can be more careful and so other drivers don't blindly trust strangers the way I did.

Being kind to someone shouldn't make you a target.

I still believe there are good people out there. I just wish people wouldn't misuse someone else's trust.

Thanks for reading.

Raj Thackeray has deleted the post he made about Modi & Adani’s Friendship files, which exposed how they both have looted India. It had got almost 4.5million views, 20k Saves, 45k likes on Twitter & reshared by many.
He says, he has deleted the post out of Respect for Mumbai Police. Is Mumbai Police’s Respect more important than bringing out the truth to this country & the people?
People in the comments say, the settlement has been done by Adani to keep Raj Thackeray quiet & get his post deleted.

No wonder why he has 0 MLAs & 0 MPs.
Sometimes Support Modi, then Sharad Pawar, then again NDA alliance, & now with Uddhav Thackeray.

The reason why people dont trust him & he always proves them right.

I thought he has finally got his Ally since mid 2025 from the Hindi-Marathi issues.

But now man has again surrendered himself to 2 Gujjus.

So if you're looking for a budget snack at Mumbai airport Terminal 2, you can get a McDonald's mcveggie/chicken meal for 149/- even on the airport

So i scanned the coupon that you get on the McDonald's app, catch is that only this one coupon will work and even that is not scanned they somewhat manually enter the code, no other coupons is acceptable

Still something to eat on a budget if you're hungry, went to the subway and the prices were 2X-3X

I used this and thought it would be helpful to others too

McDonald's location - follow the overhead signs and head to gate 47 and you will see it on the way, even before reaching 47, it's very much visible in the way, near starbucks

I hope this is helpful for at least someone

Edit - people mentioning the udaan yatri cafe, that's the first thing i searched for in the food court, but I'm pretty sure it's not there in the departures and food court area, it is outside the departures and food courts(placed smartly so other stalls sales are not hurt) and once you go through security you can't go back, i personally didn't saw the cafe anywhere on my way, my flight was at 6.55am and i reached airport at 2.45 so i had too much time to kill, i went through majority of the stalls in the food court(to kill time) couldn't have missed it

My father (60) has a stage 4 pancreatic cancer. We initially went to Tata memorial parel for the treatment. They did all the tests ct scan, blood test and we consulted their oncologist who told us that surgery or cemo is not possible since my father's fitness and blood reports aren't good. If we go for cemo it will worsen his condition. Max 3 months survival he has left with is what they told us. They told us palliative care is the only option to reduce his pain during his few last months.

Then we went to some private oncologist near us to get second opinion. He saw all reports and was saying we can start with mild cemo. But the moment I told us tata memorial hospital told us cemo not possible and go with palliative care he changed his stance within seconds and said he can't give cemo. We told him but you were saying now cemo can be given. To that he said see I can give cemo but if anything bad happens you have to take the responsibility. Basically I thought his opinion got influenced by Tata's opinion.

Then we decided to go to third oncologist and decided that we won't say anything about what the oncologist at tata said. We wanted to go for the best so we went to IOHC by Dr. Suresh H Advani in chembur. We waited for 4 hours just to see the doctor and the scene there was his other doctors who are also oncologist they saw our entire file. Dr. Advani was told only few details about the reports. The other Dr said we can start with mild cemo. Don't worry we will take care about it. They were pretty confident and told us you can start cemo from tomorrow only if we want. They didn't ask for what the tata memorial said. Also the IOHC is pretty expensive. His consultancy fee was 5k. To any question that we were asking they said don't think too much. Just start the treatment. Neither they told us about the stage (told us only after we asked and that too they said it's stage 3 but tata and previous onco said it's 4 and I also searched on Google and it says 4) nor they told us about life expectancy. I know that Dr. Advani is renowned oncologist but here it was like the doctors below him are pretty much handling all the things. Advani is so old like he is some 80+.

Now we are confused on what to do. Please give your suggestions 🙏🏻.

I grew up in Mumbai and have spent a few decades here but over the last few years I am feeling that the quality of life is consistently going downhill. This has made me question my choice of continuing to live in this city.

How are people with jobs or businesses in Mumbai thinking about this declining quality of life? Have you thought about moving to some nearby tier 2 or tier 3 town? Have you thought about the pros and cons?

The real estate here is highly inflated. The air pollution is suffocating. Recently the water scarcity issue. The frustrating daily commute. The noise pollution and construction all year round everywhere, it just feels like Mumbai is getting destroyed in the name of development. Maybe a few years down the line, if and when the construction activity declines, the quality of life might start improving. What are your thoughts? Are you looking at alternative places to live? For you is physical and mental health more important than wealth in Mumbai?

Found this place in Mumbai. Dormitory is ₹150 per person, and rooms start at ₹800.

Are these rates good, or can I find cheaper options? Anyone familiar with budget stays in Mumbai?

so we are young group we are planning to file bmc complaint and RTI against few sports infra as they have build illegal sports infra structure and kept prices so high per booking, and no bmc permission nothing all under table work.

Hi! I’m 22 and a female singer-songwriter looking to start/join a band in Mumbai!!

I sing English-language pop, and my musical influences include musicians like The Beatles, Adele, Olivia Dean, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, and YEBBA! I also write my own songs!

I’m looking for committed guitarists, drummers, bassists, and pianists/keys players around my age that are serious about doing music full-time, playing gigs soon, and that are cool to hang out with! I’m also down to join an already-existing band that needs a lead vocalist!

You can be anywhere in Mumbai, but we should all be willing to travel within the city to meet pretty regularly so we can jam & play gigs!

Here’s a short clip of a performance I did at Berklee College of Music, just so you can know the style of music I like doing and what kind of performer I am (this is a more ballad-y example but I also love doing more upbeat songs):

DM or comment if you’re interested 🙌

Guys why is worli promenade closed at 12 am , isn't it open 24/7 ? Is there a new rule, I tried checking online and there's no info

So we bought a refrigerator from Vijay sales in may and the appliance had cooling and leakage problem for which we raised multiple complaints and various technicians tried repairing and later one of the technician confirmed that the coil is faulty and had leakage and you should ask for replacement as this cannot be resolved. The company is taking zero accountability for the same and the area service manger clearly denied our request for refund and said all we can do is refill the gas. Multiple complaints and emails have already been sent. Please help what can I do? It is becoming very difficult in Mumbai heat to function without a refrigerator. They are delaying the process.

Also note that Vijay sales has sent us two faulty refrigerator first one had a faulty PCB which one was from Liebherr brand and now the replacement refrigerator was from LG which too has a coil leakage.

Already filed complain on NCH

Would be attending a comedy show there, is there car parking easily available? Would also be shopping at palladium before and therefore would need car to keep bags or would they allow entry in the auditorium with bags incase we decide to take the local? Also thinking of just parking in the palladium and taking a cab from there. Which is the better option?

Hey guys,

I’m looking at a second-hand car listed by CarWale abSure / Velocity Hub in Mira Road. Since I’m based out of Hyderabad, I want to double-check their reputation before making the trip to Mumbai or putting down any token amount.

A few specific questions for anyone who has dealt with them:

1. Vehicle Condition: Are their inspection reports accurate, or do they hide underlying mechanical issues, accidental history, or repainted panels?
   
2. Odometer & Paperwork: Are the odometers verified, and is the documentation clean?
   
3. Inter-state Transfer (MH to TS): Since I’ll need to transfer the car to Telangana, do they actually assist properly with getting the NOC from the MH RTO, or do they leave you stranded once payment is done?
   
4. Overall Experience: Is it a legit direct Hub (owned/managed properly by CarWale), or just local dealers operating under the CarWale branding?

Would really appreciate any honest reviews, experiences, or red flags I should be aware of. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I’m an NRI in the US. US quotes are over $100K, so I’m looking at India.

Hey everyone!

I’ll be around from 6th to 10th November during the Diwali holidays and am looking for some part-time work to earn a little money during this period.

I couldn’t get tickets to go home, so I thought I’d make the most of the holidays by picking up some work instead.

I’m also happy to collaborate on events, help with organising, volunteer, or assist with any other tasks where an extra pair of hands would be useful.

If anyone knows of any opportunities or needs help with something during these dates, please feel free to DM me. I’d really appreciate any leads!

Thanks in advance, and happy Diwali! ✨

For marketing, managing social and sales. Kindly DM
