Amitabh Bachchan Holds First-Ever ‘Sunday Darshan’ From Inside Bulletproof Glass Enclosure Amid Bomb Threats to Jalsa…
For the first time, due to security reasons, Amitabh Bachchan met his fans from inside a transparent, bulletproof glass enclosure outside his Mumbai bungalow, Jalsa. During this decades-old traditional “Sunday Darshan,” the megastar acknowledged his fans’ greetings by waving and folding his hands. The scene at this meeting, held on November 1, 2026, was completely different. This time, the 84-year-old actor greeted fans while standing inside a specially designed, 12-foot-high, transparent, bulletproof glass enclosure. On October 23, Mumbai Mayor Ritu Tawde and Deputy Mayor Sanjay Ghadi received a threatening email. The email explicitly warned that Amitabh Bachchan’s residence, Jalsa, could be targeted with a bomb between October 31 and November 27. It also mentioned targeting singer Diljit Dosanjh’s upcoming Mumbai concert venue and a school. Earlier, on October 18th, actor Tiger Shroff’s car was fired upon by two unidentified assailants in Juhu. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang claimed responsibility for the attack. Police investigations have also revealed that the attackers conducted a recce of Amitabh Bachchan and Salman Khan’s homes before the attack. Despite the threat looming, Amitabh Bachchan did not disappoint his fans. He needed some rest due to health reasons, yet he did not let this age-old tradition of meeting break. Currently, he is fully engaged in his work, continuing to shoot and host the popular reality show “Kaun Banega Crorepati 18.”
