Mumbai's monsoon often comes with flooded streets, cancelled trains, and disrupted routines. But alongside the chaos, it also produces moments that capture the city's unique resilience.

An unusual setup in the rain The clip, recorded outside a residential building, shows two men seated on plastic chairs in knee-deep water.

Isabela Ferrer Claims Justin Baldoni Is Harassing Her Over Subpoena
Isabela Ferrer's lawyers alleged that Baldoni is harassing their client and trying to use his financial power to influence how she responds to Blake Lively's subpoena. It Ends With Us co-stars Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively's legal drama has taken another messy turn after supporting actress Isabela Ferrer stepped forward with her own claims against Baldoni, accusing him of harassment. What started as an ugly behind-the-scenes feud has found its way to the headlines, and with Ferrer's claims, the legal drama has only gotten more complicated than it was before. As per a Variety report, on Sunday, Ferrer's lawyers alleged that Baldoni is 'harassing" their client and trying to use his financial power to influence how she responds to Blake Lively's subpoena. Ferrer's lawyers said the 24-year-old actress only wants to stay out of the legal dispute between Baldoni and Lively. However, her involvement in the case escalated earlier this year when Lively's lawyers subpoenaed her in February and sought communications related to the case. The subpoena forced Ferrer to hire a lawyer and ask Baldoni's team, as her employer, to cover the costs. Things took a messy turn when, instead of cutting a cheque, Baldoni's team allegedly tried to make the financial guarantee conditional on influencing her legal strategy. Justin Baldoni's Team Accused of Influencing Isabela Ferrer's Legal Strategy As per reports, Ferrer's lawyer, Sanford Michelman, claimed that Baldoni's team cited a 'fake case" as a justification for why producers deserved to influence her strategy in the case. Michelman also accused them of twisting facts about Ferrer's role in the legal drama and even pushing him to accept a subpoena on behalf of his client. In her own filing, Ferrer is now asking the court to 'deny the motion in its entirety and impose appropriate sanctions against Baldoni," as per Variety. How Has Justin Baldoni's Team Responded? Baldoni's team pushed back hard and released texts from Ferrer where she once described him as a 'great director" and 'wonderful to work with." Baldoni's team argued that Ferrer started distancing herself from Baldoni only after his feud with Lively exploded publicly during the film's promotion. What Happened Between Blake Lively And Justin Baldoni? Their legal feud started after the Gossip Girl alum sued Baldoni for sexual harassment, claiming he retaliated against her after she spoke out, launching a hidden campaign to ruin her reputation. In December 2024, Lively filed a complaint, alleging that Baldoni created a hostile workplace through inappropriate sexual comments.
