Best way to travel from Thane to Pune on a Friday night?

Hey fellow redditors, I need to travel from Mumbai to Pune this Friday night, right after office hours (~6-8 PM). I’m exploring options like buses, cabs, or shared rides. If you’ve done this route frequently: 1. What’s the most convenient mode of transport at that time? 2. If it’s a bus, which service do you recommend? 3. Any alternate tips to make the trip smoother? Thanks in advance!
