As we all know nonstop rains and water logging that happens in Mumbai every year doesn’t spare anybody. And one of the worst hit localities is Juhu, which is a low-lying area. Though residents are doing their best to take control of the situation before they face problems in case of heavy shower, Amitabh Bachchan, whose bungalow Jalsa and office Janak are also at Juhu, is determined to take all safety measures this monsoon. He soon will be shifting all his cars including Lexus, BMW, Bentley, and Mercedes to hotel J W Marriott’s car parking area till the monsoons get over this year. The actor clearly doesn’t want to take chances after all his luxury cars were damaged during the 26 July’s deluges in 2005. As the situation didn’t get any better after that, the actor has decided to take this defensive step. A source close to the Bachchans said that most of Amitabh Bachchan’s high-end cars have a Global Positioning System, which was severely damaged during the monsoons in the last two years. When he realised that his cars may get damaged again this year, he decided to take charge of the situation. Bachchan also had to take this step as the car park area in Jalsa is in the basement, which gets flooded easily. He is making sure that he doesn’t have to go through the trouble of maintaining his cars during and after the monsoons. He will be shifting all his cars to J W Marriott’s car parking area, as it is a safer option. Amitabh Bachchan confirmed and said that they are shifting their cars to the Marriott or any other higher level.
The security guards at Jalsa have already been informed about the cars being shifted to the Marriott over the next four or five days. Well, Bachchan had the resources to take the precautionary measures, but it is hoped that the BMC will get its act together so that Mumbaiites don’t have to go through the mess every monsoon.
