Mumbai Police's "Gully Boy" Meme Is A Warning Against Going Out For Walk

Mumbai Police on Tuesday shared a poster from Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt-starrer ''Gully Boy'' to caution people against stepping out of their homes during the lockdown.

Taking to their Twitter handle, The Mumbai Police posted a capture from ''Gully Boy'' featuring a smiling shot of Alia Bhatt, and it read, "That face when he says he is going out for a walk during lockdown."

While the meme is surely funny, the caption put up by Mumbai Police's Twitter handle is even funnier that read, "Abort mission. We repeat - Abort Mission! #StayHome #StaySafe."

The Mumbai Police has been sharing references to different movies with an aim to educate people on safety precautions to be taken amid the coronavirus crisis.

Recently, Mumbai Police shared a special corona poster referring to one of the dialogues from Shraddha Kapoor starrer 2018 horror-drama ''Stree'' to urge people to stay indoors.

It read, "O corona Kabhi mat aana" (O corona, never come) with a message to keep every street safe. The dialogue was seen written on a wall just like the movie.

Earlier, the Mumbai Police responded wittily to actor Ajay Devgn after he shared a video of the Mumbai Police and lauded them for working tirelessly during the lockdown.

The ''Singham'' actor took to Twitter to share a video by the Mumbai Police which urged people to stay at home as the same is a luxury for police officials who are currently at the frontline of the fight against COVID-19.

Responding to this, the cops gave a witty reply that consisted of some of the major hit films of the much-loved actor and tweeted, "Dear ''Singham'', just doing what ''Khakee'' is supposed to do to ensure that things return to how they were - ''Once upon a time in Mumbai''! #TakingOnCorona."
