Amitabh Bachchan Has No Big Plans for His 75th Birthday This Year
No Diwali celebrations in the Bachchan household this year, either.
Amitabh Bachchan took to Twitter to clarify to his fans and well-wishers about how he wont’ be celebrating his birthday (11 October) this year. As a matter of fact, there won’t be any Diwali celebrations in the Bachchan house either.
While the actor did not give any reasons for it, his daughter-in-law, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan lost her father in March and many are calling that to be a reason.
"India thrash Australia in T20, Pink Panthers' extraordinary convincing win, thunderstorm cancels shoot, 30 million on Twitter, and just for your information... no Diwali celebration this year," said Amitabh on Twitter.
He elaborated more (or less) in his blog as well. "No, there is no celebration of any kind for the 75th and there's no possibility of my presence here in the city. They speculate...They aver, they get to know from their 'sources', details which can be completely wrong at times... one wishes to be those sources - for we, never ever know who or what they are," Amitabh wrote.
