No one can beat Mumbai Police when it comes their ingenuity in spreading awareness on various issues. In a new post on Twitter, they advised a person to stay indoors in a quirky way. It all started with a Twitter user posing a question to the police, “Sir, my name is Sunny. Can I go outside?” The reply was hilarious. “Sir, if you are truly that star at the centre of the solar system, around which Earth and the other components of solar system revolve, we hope you realise the responsibility you are shouldering. Don't compromise it by exposing yourself to the virus please,” wrote the Mumbai Police. They further asked “Sunny” to “be the sunshine of safety”.

Earlier, the Mumbai Police asked everyone to wear masks in public through a fun Tom and Jerry cartoon strip. "Please don't go out without a cause or a mask on your face. Let's not make it a cat and mouse chase. We really don't like "Tom-Tomming" about the consequences,” the tweet read.
In April, the Mumbai Police spread COVID-19 awareness by giving a musical twist to one of their social media posts. They used Mumbai residents to stay at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, and entertain themselves with popular songs from Lady Gaga, One Direction, BTS and John Legend.
Before that, they added a creative twist to the hit 1990s track, Aaj main upar, aasmaan neeche from the film Khamoshi, to spread another message about COVID-19. The image featured the virus with a thought bubble that says: 'Aaj main upar cuz mask hai neeche'.
