Cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, and others observed the Moon gradually darkening and turning a reddish hue due to Earth's shadow and atmospheric scattering. The event drew public attention with many capturing visuals from landmarks like Mumbai's Marine Drive and Delhi's India Gate. The eclipse progressed with the Moon slowly emerging from Earth's shadow over the following hour.
