Remember Murabba in Bombay Talkies, where Vijay, a fan of Amitabh Bachchan, takes a piece of murabba from Allahabad to Mumbai for him to taste? He waits for days before managing to fulfil his dream when Big B takes a bite from the murabba.
Cut to real life, Bullet Banwari Lal Yadav, a Pune resident originally from Bihar, was arrested on Sunday for allegedly trespassing into Amitabh Bachchan’s palatial residence, Jalsa, Juhu in Mumbai.
According to the report, the 25-year-old hoodwinked the guards and jumped over the compound wall in a quest to meet Big B. Apparently, he had no other intention other than singing a Bhojpuri song to the superstar.
While we don’t know if he succeeded in his quest, he was booked under IPC 447 for criminal trespass at the Juhu police station.
