Amitabh Bachchan, the ‘Shahenshah’ of Bollywood, commands a devoted fan following across generations. Despite his hectic schedule, the legendary actor never fails to delight his admirers with his Sunday ritual of meeting and greeting the hundreds of fans who gather outside his residence.
True to tradition, the 82-year-old stepped out on September 14 to interact with his enthusiastic supporters outside his Mumbai bungalow, Jalsa. Dressed in a stylish blue-and-white jacket paired with white trousers, Big B stood tall on his usual raised platform, displaying his deep affection and respect for his loyal fans.

Surrounded by his security team, the legendary star waved to his fans and greeted them with folded hands, beaming

This Sunday, however, held an extra-special moment for one fan, Vishwa Narwal, who had travelled to Mumbai for a project.
What’s In The Video?
In a video circulating online, the woman recalled that while wandering around Juhu, her taxi driver mentioned it was Sunday, the day Amitabh Bachchan usually greets his fans.
