1. The Tiger Shroff Effect
Amitabh Bachchan decided to perform some kicks like Tiger Shroff. Reason: Instagram likes. The megastar, in the caption, said, “Seeing Tiger Shroff getting all those "like" numbers through his flexible kick abilities, I thought I would also give it a try, in the hope of getting even a small percentage of ‘likes.”
2. The Nach Punjaban Trend
Oh yes, Amitabh Bachchan didn't miss The Nach Punjaban trend. The actor is seen performing the hook step of the ultimate party number Nach Punjaban from the film JugJugg Jeeyo. Along with the pic, he wrote, “Nach Punjaban…Nach Punjaban…Nach Punjaban… Nach.”
3. Twitter Following Not Going Up
Amitabh Bachchan, back in 2018, came up with a complaint that his count of Twitter followers was not going up despite “maximum activity”. He wrote a post which read, “Dear Twitter management, it's quite amazing how you manage to keep the numbers of followers constant and not moving at all despite the maximum activity. Well done. I mean how do you keep the scoreboard from not moving despite every ball being hit for a six.”
4. The Emoji Question
Amitabh Bachchan's struggle with emojis is oh-so-relatable. The actor shared a picture in which he is seen making a frame with his hand. Here comes the question. Pointing at the raising both hands emoji, he wrote, “A question: does this emoji depict film framing as in my Insta pic .. Pr prayers, hailing, excitement … or what? I thought it was a film frame .. like good enough to be framed on film.”
5. Big B's Shout Out To The Beatles
Amitabh Bachchan shared a collage of his pictures just to give a shout out to The Beatles. Here, the actor is wearing a light yellow hoodie and white trousers. The caption includes lines from the iconic song Yellow Submarine, which was part of The Beatles' 1966 album Revolver.
6. Har Baat Toh Aaj Kal Baat Ban Jati Hai
Amid the boycott trend in Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan dropped a cryptic note, earlier this year, to express his state of mind. It read, “Kuch batein karne ka mann karta hai, par karein toh kaise karein, har baat toh aajkal baat ban jati hai (I feel like speaking about some things, but how to do it, as everything becomes an issue these days)."
7. ”Fashion Ki Toh”
“Salwaar, banyan aur hoodie…fashion ki toh —,” this is what Amitabh Bachchan had to say about his oh-so-cool and casual look. Isn't his caption game too good?
Wishing Amitabh Bachchan a very happy birthday.
