BMC Issues Stop-Work Notice at Ajay Devgn's Juhu Bungalow Over Proposed Salon
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) issued a stop-work notice to actor Ajay Devgn's Juhu bungalow over the proposed operation of a salon and spa, citing lack of permission for commercial use. The notice followed a complaint from the Kapol Co-operative Housing Society, whose residents expressed concerns about increased traffic, parking, noise, and security on narrow internal roads. The Devgn family has requested four weeks to respond, and sources claim all necessary approvals have been obtained.
