Mumbai: India’s leading private radio and entertainment network, Red FM proudly joins hands with Western Railway to create a music video with Mumbai ki Rani, RJ Malishka, aimed at deepening the connection between Mumbaikars and the Western Railway. The music video titled “Lay Bhaari” embodies the spirit of Mumbai and the ever-dependent relationship it shares with the Mumbai Local, the Western Railway.

The video is a celebration of the intricate bond between Mumbaikars and Western Railway, emphasizing on the shared joys, sorrows, and stories that travel on the tracks.
Commenting on the collaboration, Western Railway chief public relations officer Sumit Thakur said, “The “Lay Bhaari” song sung by RJ Malishka appeals in her ‘bindaas’ Mumbai lingo to follow rules and regulations for a happy and safe train journey. The song gives several social messages like, security at stations, special provisions for ladies and Divyangjan passengers, Not Boarding/Alighting a moving train, Not traveling on the footboard of the train, etc.
Speaking on the collaboration, Red FM & Magic FM COO & director Nisha Narayanan said, “Our association with Western Railway goes beyond a conventional collaboration. ‘Lay Bhaari’ is not just a song; it’s a celebration of the symbiotic relationship between the people of Mumbai and the Western Railway. As a brand that is committed to social responsibility and has consistently pursued innovative ways to connect with our audience, ‘Lay Bhaari’ is a testament to our ability to weave impactful narratives. Malishka, with her unparalleled energy captures the essence of Mumbai. The sounds of Mumbai, including railway announcements, are intricately woven into the melody, creating an immersive experience that resonates with the spirit of the city.
The song serves a dual purpose of reminding Mumbaikars to follow rules and fulfill their responsibilities towards Western Railway while highlighting the safety for women and promoting responsible behavior. It also subtly showcases Operation Amanat, an initiative by the Railway Protection Force to make it easier for passengers to retrieve lost luggage.

Swiggy sees record orders during India vs New Zealand T20 final
Chicken biryani tops match-day menu as fans order 7,500 times per minute at peak.
MUMBAI: India’s T20 final didn’t just break stumps, it broke Swiggy’s delivery records, proving cricket fans celebrate victories with plates, not just flags. Swiggy, India’s leading on-demand convenience platform, reported a sharp spike in food orders during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup final between India and New Zealand. On 8 March 2026, overall orders rose 23.2 per cent year-on-year compared with the same date in 2025, driven by fans turning living rooms into mini stadiums complete with match-day feasts.
Key highlights from the evening:
- Orders during peak match hours (7–10 pm) were 2.1 times higher than pre-match levels.
- The highest order rate hit 7,500 orders per minute at 19:45.
- Chicken biryani reigned supreme as the most-ordered dish, followed by masala dosa, chicken fried rice, garlic breadsticks and paneer butter masala.
While metros such as Bengaluru, Mumbai and Hyderabad led volumes, the cricketing fever spread nationwide. Among emerging cities, Thiruvananthapuram, Surat and Rajkot recorded the strongest order growth. Smaller markets including Shillong, Agartala and Port Blair also showed significant appetite, underlining the expanding footprint of quick-commerce food delivery across India.
The surge reflects a growing trend of pairing major sporting events with doorstep delivery, turning big matches into shared, convenient celebrations. In a night where every boundary mattered, Swiggy proved the real MVP might just be the delivery partner who kept the snacks and the vibes flowing without missing a single wicket.
