According to a Right to Information (RTI) reply petitioned by activist Anil Galgali, the actor was asked to pay for the illegal ramp demolished by the BMC outside his house Mannat in 2015. Last year, the residents in the surrounding area had accused the actor of encroaching public space, as the ramp obstructed movement to the Mount Mary Basilica during the annual Bandra fair.
