When we imagine celebrities moving around town, public transport doesn't usually spring to mind. It's a rather uncommon sight for celebrities to take public transportation and on the rare occasions that they do, it usually makes headlines.
On Tuesday, veteran actress Hema Malini took commuters by surprise when she was spotted traveling in the Mumbai Metro. In a tweet, the actress mentioned that it took two hours for her to reach Dahisar, a suburb of Mumbai, by car. Calling the journey ''tiring'', she wrote that she decided to take the Metro instead and reached her destination in just half an hour.
The actor-turned-politician shared a bunch of pictures and videos showcasing her recent Metro adventure.
''I must share with all of you my unique, wonderful experience.Drove 2 hours to reach Dahisar by car, so tiring! In the eve decided I would try the metro, and OMG! What a joy it was!True, we went thro tough times during the constr, but worth it! Clean, fast & ws in Juhu in 1/2 hr,'' she wrote in the tweet sharing pictures of her at the Metro station.
