Maharashtra is under severe lockdown with all movements except essentials and emergencies restricted for the citizens. Amid tough times, Mumbai Police’s Twitter account is well known for their witty and often filmy responses for lighter situations and one such example would be their recent viral tweet.
Mumbai Police have asked vehicle owners to put emergency or essential service stickers for easier traffic flow.
Meanwhile, a Twitter user enquired what sticker should he use on his way to meet his girlfriend. “Distance makes the heart grow fonder,” replied Mumbai Police in a tweet.
We understand it’s essential for you sir but unfortunately it doesn’t fall under our essentials or emergency categories!
Distance makes the heart grow fonder & currently, you healthier
P.S. We wish you lifetime together. This is just a phase. #StayHomeStaySafe https://t.co/5221kRAmHp

‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’, which is Madhavan’s next big release, is a biographical drama based on the life of Nambi Narayanan, a former rocket scientist at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Narayanan made headlines when he was falsely charged with espionage and arrested in 1994. He was acquitted by the Supreme Court in 1998. The film has also been written by R Madhavan. The film will release in English, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada in “Summer 2021.”
