Chennai: Prolonged and intense rainfall has resulted in widespread flooding across various parts of Chennai city. Regrettably, approximately 10 individuals have lost their lives as a consequence of the inclement weather, profoundly impacting the lives of many. Numerous residents find themselves stranded in their residences, necessitating rescue efforts facilitated by boats.

Notably, even public figures, including Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, have encountered challenges stemming from the adverse weather conditions. Mr. Khan, who arrived in Chennai to arrange medical treatment for his mother, found himself in need of rescue services.
