The city that never sleeps went on hold today, as a massive grid failure led to a major power outage in most parts of Mumbai.
Correction: The second emergency number is 022-22694725#BMCUpdates https://t.co/choVdl5Nak

As people waited for services to resume, they coped with the powercut the only way they knew how to – by creating memes and tweeting about it!
Good thing about power cut is that all News Channels in Mumbai have 0 TRP right now.

The real power cut in Mumbai happened to BJP in 2019 😂😂😂

This once a year powercut is a humble reminder to Mumbaikars to experience what rest of India goes through on a daily basis.

And of course, there was a Jofra Archer tweet from 2013, that had seemingly predicted the future, yet again!

Like always, people were impressed by the ‘modern-day Nostradamus’:
Prabhu ho aap . Apko Sab pata rhta hai
