The Dharavi slum, about three-quarters the size of New York's Central Park, featured in Danny Boyle's Oscar-winning 2008 movie "Slumdog Millionaire".
Only those who already lived in Dharavi before 2000, mostly ground-floor residents, will get free homes within the redevelopment.
In interviews with Reuters, some Dharavi residents cited the billionaire's financial troubles as contributing to their concerns.
Last month, a Mumbai court allowed SecLink to add Adani to its lawsuit, forcing the conglomerate to defend its position before judges.
In early August, about 300 opposition supporters and residents gathered in Dharavi to object to Adani's involvement.
