Akshay Kumar decided to beat Mumbai traffic and take the metro with Good Newwz director Raj Mehta. He shared a video of them commuting from Ghatkopar to Versova in the metro.
Celebrity
or
commoner,
traffic
in
Mumbai
gets
on
everyone's
nerves.
Akshay
Kumar
decided
to
skip
the
traffic
by
taking
public
transport.
He
ditched
his
car
and
travelled
in
the
Mumbai
Metro
with
Good
Newwz
director
Raj
Mehta.
The
actor
took
to
his
Twitter
to
share
a
video
of
him
commuting
in
the
metro,
while
talking
about
why
he
made
this
decision.
On
Wednesday,
Akshay
Kumar
had
to
travel
from
Ghatkopar
to
Versova
in
Mumbai
for
work
but
traffic
was
peaking
at
the
time.
So,
when
director
Raj
Mehta
suggested
that
they
take
a
metro
to
save
time,
Akshay
was
on
board
with
the
idea.
In
the
video
he
recorded
Akshay
said
that
it
would
have
taken
them
two
hours
if
they
had
travelled
by
car,
but
their
metro
journey
just
took
them
twenty
minutes.
Akshay
panned
the
camera
to
show
the
crowded
train
and
his
good
friend,
Raj.
He
captioned
the
video,
"My
ride
for
today,
the
@MumMetro...travelled
#LikeABoss
from
Ghatkopar
to
Versova
beating
the
peak
hours
traffic
."
