Is there a direct metro or fewer-interchange route from Dharavi to Akurli?

What are the first and last metro timings from Dharavi to Akurli?
With several lines and 3 interchanges, first and last trains are not a single pair of clock times for the whole trip — each leg may start and end service at different times. the Noida Aqua Line often follows a different (typically shorter) evening operating window than the main Delhi Metro — verify same-day schedules and plan your start from Dharavi so you can complete every leg. Use official operator information or station displays and confirm each line you use, especially if you travel very early or late. Where this page lists station timings, treat them as a guide only and confirm with the operator on the day of travel.
Note: Routes are sorted by shortest path first, then by fewest interchanges. Travel times are estimates and may vary based on actual metro schedules.
