A Mumbai actor has shared a video that shows the common problems many residents face during heavy monsoon rains in the city. The clip shows him climbing multiple floors after the lifts in his building stopped working.
The man, Mohit Hiranandani, said he lives in a high-rise building that is marketed as a luxury property but still faces basic issues like non-working lifts during rain. He also pointed out that this happened even though he pays a high rent every month.
Lift Failure During Heavy Rain
In the video, he is seen taking the stairs as all five lifts in his building reportedly stopped working due to heavy rain. He said this made him climb around 30 floors to reach his home after a long day.
The video text also highlighted the contrast between high rent and poor facilities. “Paying nearly Rs 1 lakh a month to live in a “luxury” building only for all 5 lifts to give up the moment it rains so now you’re climbing 30 floors like it’s a trek.”
Problems Continue After Reaching Home
After finally reaching his flat, he shared that the situation did not improve. He said there was no water supply in the building when he got home.
In the caption, he wrote: “And then when you get home. No water. Waah Mumbai life!”

Another user added, “Builders charge premium rates but basic maintenance still fails when it rains.”
