While
the
country
is
still
reeling
under
the
devastating
COVID-19
pandemic,
gusty
winds
and
rains
lashed
the
city
of
Mumbai
due
to
the
'extremely
severe'
Cyclone
Tauktae.
There
was
water-logging
at
several
places
including
Bollywood
megastar
Amitabh
Bachchan's
office
Janak
in
Mumbai.
The
Don
actor
took
to
his
blog
and
revealed
that
the
premises
of
his
office,
Janak,
were
flooded
as
Cyclone
Tauktae
hit
the
shores
of
Mumbai
on
Monday
(May
17,
2021).
He
said
that
the
sheds
and
shelters
for
some
of
his
staff
blew
away
due
to
the
heavy
monsoon
rain
but
their
spirit
of
fight
was
impregnable.
He
also
said
that
he
offered
his
own
collection
of
team
T-shirts
of
Abhishek
Bachchan's
Pink
Panthers
team
to
the
staff
members
who
got
drenched
while
repairing
the
damages.
