According to the user who posted the video, the incident took place after a crack in the water tank that was recently installed and not because of incessant rains in Mumbai.

The 40-second Twitter clip shows water gushing from top of the 40-storey building in the posh Cuffe Parade area, almost making it seem like an artificial waterfall. The unusual sight left people amused and some of them were seen filming the torrent.
