The Mumbai Metro authorities called out actor Varun Dhawan for performing pull-ups inside a Mumbai Metro coach, following the success of his recently released film 'Border 2.'

Sharing a video of Dhawan performing pull-ups inside the metro with fans, MMMOCL wrote, "This video should have come with a disclaimer like the ones in your action movies, Varun Dhawan- Do Not Try This On Maha Mumbai Metro. We get it, it is cool to hang out with friends inside our metros, but those grab handles are not for hanging. Acts like these are punishable under the sections relating to causing nuisance and/or damage to property given in the Metro Railways (Operations and Maintenance) Act, 2002, attracting penalties and even imprisonment depending on the gravity of the offence. So folks, hang out, but don't hang in there. Travel responsibly on Maha Mumbai Metro."
