The inauguration was marked by Maharashtra Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis, who took a metro ride from BKC to the newly named ICICI Lombard Siddhivinayak Metro Station. The metro line aims to ease congestion and improve connectivity across Aarey Colony, JVLR, Andheri, BKC, Worli, and beyond.

As a first-of-its-kind initiative, the station will host a health booth by ICICI Lombard offering on-the-go wellness services. Commuters can check vital health indicators such as blood pressure, oxygen saturation, stress levels, and BMI by simply using the IL TakeCare app’s facial scan feature.

To create awareness about personalised insurance solutions for health, motor, and business needs, the station is adorned with immersive creative displays, including India’s first anamorphic wall in a metro environment—providing a 3D visual experience that enhances commuter engagement.

Speaking at the event, Sanjeev Mantri, MD & CEO of ICICI Lombard, said, “It is an honour to be associated with Siddhivinayak Metro Station, a location symbolic of both faith and progress. This collaboration allows us to serve Mumbai residents with improved mobility and meaningful health solutions.”

The station will operate from 6 AM to 11 PM with metro services running every 3–4 minutes during peak hours and every 6–8 minutes during off-peak times. The facility is part of Phase 2 of the 33.5 km Line 3 corridor, which includes 27 underground stations linking SEEPZ, BKC, and Colaba.
