Overview
- MMMOCL had reshared a video of Varun Dhawan doing pull-ups on grab handles inside a Mumbai Metro coach and issued a safety warning.
- The operator said such acts can be punishable under the Metro Railways (Operations and Maintenance) Act, 2002, citing nuisance and property damage provisions.
- By Tuesday, the metro authority removed its warning post, and Dhawan’s team stated that no fine or penalty was issued and that no issues remain pending.
- One report quoted an MMMOCL official claiming a ₹500 fine, a point the actor’s camp disputes, leaving enforcement details unresolved.
- The episode unfolded during Border 2 promotions and prompted online calls for consistent rule enforcement and reminders about safe conduct on public transport.
