‘And they endure...’

Amitabh Bachchan expresses gratitude to his fans 

“It is deeply moving for me”, said Amitabh Bachchan, as he expressed gratitude to his fans, who gathered around his Jalsa house despite heavy rains in Mumbai to catch a glimpse of the actor. Bachchan, who has been in the industry for over five decades, comes out of his residence every Sunday to meet his fans, who gather around his house. The actor has been following his Sunday ritual for years.

The Sholay actor shared pictures of the meet-and-greet on his personal blog on Monday and said his fans come despite the harsh weather, be it during the rains or in winter, and wait for him. Mumbai is currently facing severe monsoon conditions. The pictures featured the actor wearing a white kurta-pyjama and a waistcoat, greeting his fans. “A wave , folded palms .. a signing of autographs .. and they endure and leave.. my respect as always... They come despite the weather - rain, shine, winter .. and the same enthusiasm .. so deeply moving for me,” he wrote.
