BMC Issues Stop-Work Notice at Ajay Devgn's Juhu Bungalow Over Salon and Spa Plans
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) issued a stop-work notice to actor Ajay Devgn's Juhu bungalow in the Kapol Co-operative Housing Society over a proposed salon and spa. The BMC stated no permission was granted for commercial use of the residential property. The notice followed a complaint from the housing society citing concerns about increased customer traffic, parking, noise, and security on narrow internal roads. The Devgn family has requested four weeks to respond, asserting that necessary approvals have been obtained.
