scaled the compound wall of the actor's residence in Juhu with the intent to show his "talent" to his idol.
Bullet Banwari Lal Yadav, 23, from Bihar was arrested for allegedly trespassing into Jalsa, Mr Bachchan's residence in the wee hours on Sunday, a Mumbai police official said.
Mr Yadav, who claims to be a singer, entered Big B's house by climbing the compound wall on Sunday afternoon, he said.
Mr Yadav
