Urmila Matondkar is busy campaigning in the constituency which sprawls through the thickly populated suburbs of Malad-Kandivali-Borivali-Dahisar, in the north-west part of Mumbai. On Sunday, she met few auto drivers in the constituency

When Urmila Matondkar was earlier asked how she will contest an election as she is relatively new in politics, she said, "I agree that he has a lot of experience and has many things at his disposal, but I have immense support of people and I hope that they will be with me throughout my journey because I am not appearing as a star before them. "I am coming to them as their representative. I just want to work for them. I am sure that they will stand by me."

Urmila Matondkar said that the Congress party has participated in the freedom struggle and it stood for freedom. "I feel every citizen of this country has the right to make his own choice which is granted by the Constitution. I feel people like me should stand up, not just for themselves but for all of them."

The Congress fielded Urmila Matondkar from Mumbai North Lok Sabha constituency, two days after she joined the party. Urmila Matondkar is pitted against Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Gopal Shetty, who defeated former Mumbai Congress chief Sanjay Nirupam in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls

However, Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) candidate from North Mumbai Gopal Shetty earlier said that his opponent Urmila Matondkar of Congress is a fine actress and he respects her, but the BJP will win with a higher margin of votes from Mumbai
