Amitabh Bachchan Will Be 75 This Year. Here's How He Will Celebrate (Or Not)

New Delhi: Superstar Amitabh Bachchan, who will turn 75 on October 11, said that he won't be celebrating his birthday this year. On his blog, Big B wrote, "Many threaten and plan a 75th celebration for my birth.. may it be known that there shall be no such event, allowed or even acknowledged.. may it be known that if there is such move by others they must withdraw from it for I shall never acknowledge or endorse such .. be it family or Ef or any other.. it is not going to be with any consent." It was earlier reported that the Bachchan family is planning a grand party to celebrate Big B's 75th birthday. However, he wrote, "All this talk and news of a big celebration for my 75th is not true, ridiculous, and an absolute facetious, farcical hibernating illusion."

Amitabh Bachchan who is currently busy shooting for television show Kaun Banega Crorepati, also wrote that he won't be in town on October 11. "And if there are those from within and without that are making any kind of plans.. let it be known to them.. I am not going to be there, come what may.." Big B wrote.
