An unidentified flying object was sighted by people at the Gateway of India in Mumbai on Thursday (August 28). A video was also shot by an alert citizen and the same has been posted on the popular internet video site You Tube.

The sighting has created a stir as the video clearly shows a flying object coming out of nowhere into the sky. It remained there for some seconds and then vanished out of the vision.

People said that this was one of the most visible UFO sightings in the country. The UFO landings have also been sighted at Thane and Kalyan and caused widespread rumour as people in all parts of the city are claiming to have witnessed the object.

While some of the local citizens have termed it as a crap, others have taken it seriously and making frantic calls to know about the reality. A Mumbai resident said "UFO sighting in Mumbai? Guess someone had too much free time. How can someone possibly spot a UFO (that too so huge) in the city filled with smoke, smoke and more smoke?.

However, all were not so circumspect, another resident said, "There is another world beyond the earth and the sighting of UFOs confirms this."

But, another Mumbai resident had an interesting take on this, he said, "Aliens comes to rescue!!!No traffic problems!! Caught in traffic catch a UFO to your office. What do you say??"

Whether it was UFO or a hoax, experts will have to find out, but this sighting has created a buzz in the financial capital of India. People across Mumbai are looking skyward to see if they can spot the UFO once again.
