Fans covered every inch of Mumbai’s Marine Drive, creating a sea of blue, waiting to get a glimpse of the T20 World Cup-winning Indian team.
Anand Mahindra, the chairman of the Mahindra Group, was stunned to see thousands gather at Mumbai’s Marine Drive to witness Team India’s open bus victory parade. The Indian team returned home on Thursday after lifting the T20 World Cup last week in Barbados. The team’s arrival in India was delayed due to bad weather conditions. A chartered plane flew from Barbados on Wednesday and landed at the national capital during the early hours on Thursday. The players and the support staff met PM Narendra Modi in New Delhi, before leaving for Mumbai later in the day.

Reacting to a picture of the same, Anand Mahindra gave a new name to the Marine Drive.
“It’s no longer the Queen’s Necklace in Mumbai. It’s now Mumbai’s JAADU KI JHAPPI,” Mahindra wrote in a post on X
India batter Suryakumar Yadav, who took a match-changing catch in the final against South Africa, was left impressed by Anand Mahindra’s suggestion.
