Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he has sought police assistance to effectively manage his fans, who gather outside his residence every Sunday.
The 72-year-old actor gets worried when he spots women and children trying to find their way through the crowd to catch his glimpse.
"It is another Sunday and the rains have been silent for a while... They predict the wet ways again by the morrow and the wishers and well beings of my life gather outside the gates of JALSA and in heavy multitudes and in some unpredictable crowd planning... It worries me no end when the little children and the ladies are subjected to discomfort," Bachchan posted on his blog.
"So, I have had a word with the police and they shall plan out a more simpler yet effective way of dealing with the situation... A situation that really is filled with so much passion and affection that at times it feels awkward to prevent them from expressing themselves," the actor said.
