Hum Tum Director Kunal Kohli Objects To Loud Firecrackers Outside Khar Hospital During Mother’s Emergency Visit; Resident Responds, 'Hospital Galat Jagah Pe Hai'

Bollywood director Kunal Kohli expressed frustration on X about residents setting off loud firecrackers near Hinduja Hospital in Khar on Diwali night. He recounted how he had just taken his ailing mother to the hospital when he heard the loud explosions outside. Kohli politely asked the residents to avoid loud bombs while using other crackers, but one man allegedly replied, "Hospital galat jagah pe hai – hum yahan 40 saal se hain" (The hospital is in the wrong place; we've lived here for 40 years) before continuing with the noisy crackers.

He tagged the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation in his post, though there had been no official response at the time. The filmmaker, known for hits like Hum Tum and Fanaa, highlighted how hospitals are designated silence zones with noise restrictions, per court orders and pollution laws. Violations can result in legal action.
