The weather departments have issued a warning to residents of Mumbai and have urged them to stay indoors as Cyclone Tauktae intensifies. 

The Indian Meteorological Department said that this is the country's first major tropical storm this season and it is moving northwards in parallel with the country's western coast, bringing heavy rains, thunderstorms, and strong winds to several states.

Meanwhile, actor Kartik Aaryan found a rather hilarious way to urge people to stay indoors.

He took to social media and shared an important message for his fans. He wrote, “#Tauktae  One more reason to stay inside.”
