A few days ago, we had told you that BMC had served Arjun with a notice over illegal construction at his Juhu home – Raheja Orchid (Arjun Kapoor In Trouble, BMC Serves Final Notice Over Illegal Construction, Dec 29). It was reported that an activist, who does not live in the building had approached the BMC to complain about the room, after which the civic body started an investigation to ascertain the allegation of irregularities.

The BMC had issued the first notice to the actor in March followed by one in December asking Arjun to allow municipal staff on his premises to demolish the unauthorised structure.

While talking to a leading daily, Assistant Municipal Commissioner Parag Masurkar had said, "We have given them enough time to produce supporting documents to prove that the structure is legal but they failed. Now we have issued the final order asking Arjun Kapoor to allow us to enter his premises to demolish the unauthorised structure on the terrace."

Civic officials said that after following all the legal processes, they had concluded the inquiry over the irregularities and issued the final demolition order.

Soon after the notice, Arjun requested the BMC to let him dismantle the gym himself and promised that he will do so by Friday, last week. However, failing to complete the task at hand, the civic body was forced to demolish it.

Arjun is a fitness buff and now, with the structure being demolished, the actor will have to look for an alternative. On the professional front, Arjun is currently shooting for Mubarakan which also features Anil Kapoor, Ileana D’Cruz and Athiya Shetty.
