Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 11 (ANI): Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan took a trip down memory lane as he shared a nostalgic throwback from former cricket icon Sunil Gavaskar’s 50th birthday celebration.
The megastar took to his X (formerly Twitter) account and shared a series of pictures where Amitabh is seen posing with cricketing greats Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar, and Gundappa Viswanath.
Along with the pictures, the actor added a caption that read, “T 5221 – such a humbling and honoured moment for me, to be wrapped in the same garland as the legendary GREATS of Cricket… Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar, Gundappa Viswanath… I think it was the 50th birthday celebration of Sunil Gavaskar.”
Just recently, Amitabh reacted to a video featuring ‘Pushpa’ star Allu Arjun. In the clip, Allu Arjun expressed his admiration for the Bollywood superstar, calling him a major inspiration.
“I am inspired by Amitabh (Bachchan) ji. He has a long span of career. I absolutely adore the megastar of our country because we have grown up watching his films. He has had a lot of impact on us in the growing years. Even till date, at this age, I keep thinking, if I get very old, I should still be acting like how gracefully Amitabh ji is doing. You should work as beautifully as Amitabh ji,” Allu said in the video.
