Mumbai, April 14 (NationPress) Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan disclosed a unique gift from his actor-son Abhishek Bachchan and explained why it held sentimental value.
Amitabh took to his blog to share a photograph of a vintage Reader's Digest, a family-oriented magazine, featuring him on the cover.
He wrote: “A dear friend sent me this.... old times reminded… it used to be a constant in the home .. now in a smaller size and being brought out in retrospective .. generous words .. not deserving but grateful and obliged (sic)…”
The cinematic icon expressed his thoughts on how the art of handwriting is becoming less common due to digital devices.
“The age of handwriting has been overtaken by the punches on the black square .. and the generation of the young now in their curriculum are giving their work here on this medium .. and no one writes,” he remarked.
The octogenarian then revealed that his son Abhishek gifted him a special pen, recognizing his father’s affection for traditional writing.
“But in the generosity of Abhishek, he gave me a pen, as a gesture that acknowledged that his father still often prefers to use his hands in the usage of the ink .. often enough ..(sic).”
Elaborating on the pen’s significance, Big B stated: “And also did you know, another factor that Abhishek picked up from the store he chose the pen, that the nibs of pens are designed separately for the left-handed, and the right-handed…(sic).”
The thespian also shared several images from his weekly Sunday gatherings with fans at the gates of his residence in Mumbai.
“Generosity ... as is the generosity of them the young and the old and the well-wishers at the Sunday meetings,” he noted.
The legendary actor expressed his appreciation for the blessings received at Siddhivinayak and Babulnath temples, symbolized by a sacred offering draped over his shoulder.
“... Blessed this morning by the Lord Ganesha at Siddhivinayak, by presenting to me the blessings draped over my shoulder .. and the blessings at the mandir at Babulnath .. Keep well .. keep connected and remain ever in prayers,” he concluded.
