Bachchan was seen waving to his fans with his son Abhishek Bachchan standing beside him.
The tightened security comes after a threatening email was reported to Mumbai police last week.
Reportedly, the email was sent to a school in the Bandra-Kurla Complex area in Mumbai.
The email allegedly threatened to target Bachchan's house with a bomb and named October 31 and November 27 as possible dates for attacks.
The police has launched an investigation and it is still to be ascertained whether the email specifically mentioned Bachchan's residence.
