Amitabh Bachchan met fans outside Jalsa.

The veteran actor stepped out of his Juhu bungalow to greet the large crowd gathered outside. However, unlike his usual Sunday appearances, Bachchan was seen standing inside a transparent protective enclosure. The actor waved at his fans and greeted them with his signature style.
