We reached Dadar station early in the morning around 6am. We had to go to SevenHills Hospital from Dadar railway station. I was approached by a taxi driver (Sikh) who was talking nicely. We told him to take us to Seven Hills hospital. Then he called another fellow, who is also a Sikh. He told us that if we need A/C, it will cost extra. Even though the actual fare would be around Rs.250/-, he took us in a longer path, so, the cost became Rs.500/-. Not only that, when I gave him a Rs.500/- note, he told us that it's just a Rs.100/- note and demanded another Rs.500/- So, we got cheated for Rs.1000/-. He was not allowing us to get down the car, and insisted on paying the money in the car itself. I don't remember the exact taxi number, but I would request others to be careful with taxi drivers. Also, be very cautious with Rs.500/- rupee notes, as it's a common form for them to cheat.
