    It's not, all the official accounts are under the username Mumbai48 (Twitter/Insta/FB), there's no YouTube channel yet

    No. Some AKB48 fan just made Twitter and YouTube accounts in the name of MUM48, then posted Google Translated Hindi posts on Twitter and the SHOWROOM announcement video on YouTube also with Google Translated Hindi.

    I think by reading the tweets, one can clearly see that @MUMBAI48 is the official account. They're posting videos that haven't been seen before, explaining the meaning behind the group and following a host of Indian celebrities and media outlets that AKB48 fans wouldn't be aware of.

    Let's wait for more information, I think they will do more events about the group.

    What Rashmi also said was that they're scouting only girls from Mumbai, which is something I was wondering about with a group like this that would have young girls who are still in school or college and would find it difficult to convince their parents to move to a new city. And unlike Japan, you can't expect them to commute from different cities for lessons every day because India is a huge country and also doesn't have a bullet train service like Japan.

    Neither is Jakarta. But at least you can rent a vacant room here. I wonder how things work in Mumbai.

    Renting a room isn't a problem. Does the Jakarta group have school girls too? And they also travel from other cities in Indonesia?

    Mumbai rent is crazy high and I don’t see parents allowing their teen school aged girls to move to another city anyway. College aged and above is different.

    Travelling everyday is definitely not an option for the MUM48 group. It’s sorta obvious why their search is limited to that city only.

    But idk I feel like at the end of the day, it really just depends on how much faith the girls applying would have in MUM48, whether it’s worth taking the risk of moving to a city like Mumbai.

    Nah not school girls, I think lol. It's either college students or college students graduatee.
    This. This is gonna be a problem. In Jakarta (and most of cities in Indonesia), renting a room can get cheaper depends on where do you rent.

    It's the same in Mumbai. It depends on where in Mumbai you look for a room.

    The difference between JKT48 and MUM48 I think is that AKB48 already has a fanbase in Indonesia so girls themselves are auditioning for the group, whereas here people are mostly clueless about AKB48 so they probably wouldn't get as many girls auditioning for the group. Hence, they need to go look for the girls themselves.

    ^Even then, I'm not sure if people in India will like that song, especially if it's their debut song.

    Wouldn’t FLYING GET be a better choice ?
    It’s very public friendly, the beat makes you want to dance and if they keep the same vibe as the dance MV I think people would like it
