Meanwhile, on Sunday Amitabh Bachchan shared a glimpse of how his meet and greet looked. Amitabh took to X (formerly called Twitter) and shared a picture from his home in Mumbai, where every Sunday his fans would come to catch a glimpse of the cine-icon.
In the image, the star's back is towards the camera as a swarm of fans are seen standing outside the gate of his home, Jalsa, just to see their icon.
Amitabh is seen dressed in a kurta pyjama with a shawl wrapped around him and is waving towards his fans. For the caption, he wrote: "Jalsa ka dwar".
Big B shared another picture of himself and wrote: "The Sunday of anticipation... love... affection... and continuityâ¦. At the gate of Jalsa, there is a scene full of affection; my gratitude since 1982."
The actor has never failed to meet his fans outside his home unless he is travelling for work. This long standing tradition has been going on for decades.
