She slammed the BMC\u2019s \u2018haphazard\u2019 functioning after her 14 km journey to Film City took her more than double the usual time due to metro work chaos. The actress took a rickshaw ride to reach the sets, and she revealed being stuck for over 1 hour outside Film City in Goregaon. She said that while it usually takes her 1 hour to reach sets from home, it took her 2.5 hours today due to severe traffic congestion, worsened by the ongoing metro construction work in the area. She accused BMC (<span class=\"cf0\">Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation) <\/span>of taking Mumbaikars for granted.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Rupali Ganguly slammed the poor planning and mismanagement by BMC and metro authorities, and questioned why large construction containers were being moved during peak hours, at 10 AM, when most people are commuting to work. She suggested that such operations should be carried out during early morning hours around 3 to 4 AM, to avoid disrupting the daily traffic. Sharing a video of the traffic chaos from her rickshaw, the Anupamaa actress wrote, \u201cStill stuck for over 1 hour now outside filmcity ! For a 14 km distance it takes me 2 hours to get home at night and mornings usually 1 hour but because of @mybmc haphazard functioning it took me 2 and a half hours to get to my set !!

Now there is some Metro construction going on outside Film City. And this so-called management of the Metro, the BMC, whoever responsible, had to get such a big container. Half the road is anyway blocked because of it. If they had to get this, they should have done this at 3 am-4 am in the morning. Not at a time when everybody is going to work. At 10 am!&#8221; she said, voicing her frustration.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">She also shared the video on her Instagram stories and wrote, \u201cStuck for over 1 hour now !!! BMC you are the most disorganized and literally the pits!
