Finding a comfortable apartment that falls within your budget in Mumbai is practically impossible, unless your bank account is loaded. You might stand outside the door of an apartment thinking “This could work” and immediately enter and be like “NOPE”. Privacy? Forget it. Space? What’s that? You either get a flat so tiny, you can stretch and touch all four walls, or one where you have to sacrifice luxuries like sunlight.
A guy named Utkarsh Gupta took to X to share pictures of a two-bedroom apartment in the upscale Pali Hill area in Mumbai. The highlight? A washing machine installed directly above the toilet.
The picture shows the apartment’s snug bathroom where the unusual placement of the washing machine caught everyone’s eye. But what really grabbed people’s attention was the staggering rent of Rs 1.35 lakh per month and a hefty Rs 4 lakh security deposit.
Have a look at Utkarsh’s tweet here:
Only in Mumbai, you can front load your washing machine while top loading your commode.

People online couldn’t get over the bizarre placing of the washing machine. Here’s what they had to say:
