Amitabh Bachchan's Jalsa Bungalow Was Originally Named Mansa
Amitabh Bachchan's iconic Juhu bungalow, now known as Jalsa, was originally called Mansa and was reportedly given to him by producer N C Sippy as part of his remuneration for the 1982 film Satte Pe Satta. Bachchan sold the bungalow but later repurchased it at a higher price at his wife Jaya's request, renaming it Jalsa. The Bachchan family owns additional nearby properties, including Janak and Ammu, with another bungalow recently renamed Mansa. Jalsa remains a well-known landmark where Bachchan meets fans weekly.
