As Mumbai recorded one of its heaviest spells of monsoon rainfall in years, residents took to social media with a mix of admiration, frustration and humour, even as visuals of flooded subways, submerged tunnels and waterlogged roads circulated widely.

"Mumbai was desperate for rains and we got 52% of our June average in 12 hours. So much rain would've brought any city in India to standstill but not us," wrote user Krishna Anand on X, adding, "The rest of Mumbai is clean, fully working, all offices attended and no flooding... Well done Mumbaikars."
