It was an ordinary evening for Mumbai Metro passengers, until an unexpected announcement turned a routine ride into a moment of laughter and confusion. As the train sped along its route, the usual calm voice that updates commuters about upcoming stations suddenly declared, “Aapka agla stop Bangkok hai!” For a few seconds, the entire coach froze. Some passengers looked around, wondering if they heard it right, while others couldn’t help but laugh. A few even pulled out their phones to record the hilarious moment. Passengers React to the Unexpected ‘Bangkok’ Stop The video opens with passengers inside the Mumbai Metro, some seated, others standing near the doors. Suddenly, the calm routine is broken by an unexpected announcement: “Aapka agla stop Bangkok hai! Shock mat ho, book karo, kyunki MakeMyTrip mein chal rahi hai Travel Ka Muhurat Sale.” The short clip, filmed by one of the passengers, captures the light-hearted chaos that followed the announcement.

A user wrote, “I’m amazed no one laughed at this.” Another joked, “Ladke khush ho gye honge… station pr hi massage mil jayegi.” Someone else commented, “Good boys go to heaven, bad boys go to Bangkok,” while another added, “Advertisements peak here.” An individual said, “I am also listening to the same thing from the last 3 days in the Mumbai metro.” And another confirmed it saying, “It’s marketing.” A few even suggested that the suspense should have lasted longer before revealing it was an ad. The Clever Marketing Move Behind the Prank The surprise message turned out to be a creative marketing campaign by MakeMyTrip. Reportedly, the company confirmed that it was part of their ongoing “Agla Stop: Holiday!” initiative, promoting the “Travel Ka Muhurat Sale,” which runs from October 29 to November 30 this year. The campaign encourages people to take a break from their busy routines and plan year-end holidays with special discounts on flights, hotels and vacation packages.
