Advitism[]
A song has gone viral on social media and has become a talking point in the city. Malishka made a catchy YouTube video about Mumbai's monsoon problems (potholes) and the monsoon woes that Mumbaikars have to face every year, beginning with the potholes menace, the traffic jams on roads and railway disruptions. The song was themed around the question "Mumbai, do you trust the BMC?", which offended the BMC (Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation).
Buoyed by the success of her previous song, in 2018 she came up with new song targeting BMC. This time a copy of Zingaat song of Sairaat movie. She has described that how Mumbai has gone to dogs blaming the BMC. .
Subsequently, the civic body invited Malishka for road inspection where she was explained about the functioning of the civic body and how it takes up efforts to maintain the city roads during the monsoons.[10]
