The Mumbai Marathon 2026 turned the city into a moving carnival. With over 69,100 participants registered, like every year, Mumbaikars across age groups took to the streets on Sunday morning. Among the people running the Dream Run (6 km), was Aamir Khan , who made his debut at the marathon. He was present here with ex-wife Kiran Rao, son Azad, daughter Ira and son-in-law Nupur Shikhare.

The Dream Run, as always, became a place where people got creative to raise awareness about a range of issues and support causes, such as child safety, climate change and cancer awareness.

Style didn’t take a backseat. One runner turned heads dressed as Olympic hero Neeraj Chopra, another showed up in a look dedicated to Operation Sindoor and one dressed up as Spider-Man, while many women ran in saris — proving that comfort and culture can go hand in hand.
