“She was immediately taken to a nearby hospital for first aid, where her condition was confirmed to be stable. A case was registered against the intoxicated driver, and he was taken into custody,” said Mumbai Police, confirming both the medical outcome and legal action. Such prompt response is typical during large festival weekends when law enforcement increases deployment across high-traffic corridors.
Additionally, Sunburn’s Mumbai edition ran as a three-day gala from December 19 to December 21 this year, drawing thousands of attendees. Launched in 2007, the festival has rotated between Goa and Pune before arriving in Mumbai, which naturally amplifies logistical demands and public safety operations during peak hours.
