Passengers enjoy short fictional or humorous tales during transit.

Delhi Metro has introduced Storytime Carriages, providing curated short stories for commuters. According to NDTV, passengers can listen to fiction, humor, or local anecdotes through audio systems or reading materials while traveling.

Commuters report improved mood, reduced boredom, and increased engagement. Organizers provide story rotation, author features, and feedback options. Critics worry about selective appeal, but psychologists note cognitive stimulation, entertainment, and community connection benefits. Plans include thematic story weeks and interactive audience participation.
