Amitabh Bachchan shuts down trolls taking digs at his late-night tweets, responds to ‘umar ho gayi hai': ‘Mere maran ki baat karne ke liye…'
Veteran superstar Amitabh Bachchan is quite active on social media. His witty replies on X (formerly Twitter) are widely known among fans. Recently, the 81-year-old actor got involved in a heated exchange with trolls, who were asking him to sleep on time and mocking him for being active on social media late at night. He didn't hold himself back and served them in style.
In the wee hours on Monday, June 9, Amitabh wrote in a tweet, 'T 5405 – Gadgets break…Longevity lasts!!!.' While some users engaged positively with his random thought, a few people took the opportunity to make fun of Big B. Replying to his post, a user wrote, 'Samay se so jaya karo, varna lambi umar bhi nahi tikegi'. To which the actor replied, 'Mere maran ki baat karne ke liye dhanyawaad, ishwar ki kripa (Thank you for talking about my death, by God's grace).'

Mentioning a reference from the the title song of his hit film Shahenshah, another troll commented, 'Andheri raaton mein Shaehshah kyun jaag rahe ho, so jaaiye ab umar ho gayi aapki,' implying that the actor should take care of his health, keeping his advanced age in mind. Amitabh instantly gave a witty reply and wrote, 'Ek din tumhari bhi umar ho jaayegi, ishwar ne chaaha (One day, you'll grow old too, if God wills).'

He is also expected to return for the next season of Kaun Banega Crorepati on Sony TV, later this year.

Abhishek Bachchan REACTS To Amitabh Bachchan Calling Him His 'Uttaradhikari': ‘He's Also a Father'
Last Updated: Abhishek Bachchan reacts to Amitabh Bachchan calling him his 'uttaradhikari', saying people often forget he's not just a legend, but also a father and family man. Amitabh Bachchan has never shied away from publicly expressing his pride in his son, Abhishek Bachchan. In a recent heartfelt blog post, the legendary actor once again showered praise on Abhishek, calling him his 'uttaradhikari"—a true successor—not merely by blood but by merit and dedication. Reflecting on the profound quote from his father, the late Harivansh Rai Bachchan, Big B wrote, 'Mere bete, bete hone se mere uttaradhikari nahi honge; jo mere uttaradhikari honge woh mere bete honge" — a powerful assertion that inheritors are defined not by lineage but by action and values. In his blog, Amitabh lauded Abhishek's consistent courage in choosing challenging roles and his commitment to every character. 'Success comes to those who dare and act… not merely in performance, but in life itself," he wrote. 'Abhishek has always dared to act, to step into roles that push him, to be recognised not just as my son, but as an artist in his own right." Responding to this emotional note in a recent interview with ETimes, Abhishek offered a grounded reflection. 'People forget that beyond the icon that is Amitabh Bachchan, he is also a father," he shared. 'We see him as a hero, but he's human too—he feels, he encourages, he worries. My parents would be proud of anything I do, as long as they know I've given it my all." The deeply personal exchange between father and son has struck a chord with fans, further affirming the quiet strength of their bond—one built not just on legacy, but on mutual respect and emotional truth. Up next, Abhishek will be seen in Kaalidhar Laapata, directed by Madhumita. The film explores themes of abandonment and quiet rebellion through the story of a man grappling with memory loss. When he overhears his family planning to desert him at the crowded Maha Kumbh Mela, he chooses to disappear on his own terms—until fate introduces him to Ballu, a spirited 8-year-old orphan surviving on the streets. The poignant drama is set to premiere on ZEE5 on July 4.

Abhishek Bachchan reacts to Amitabh Bachchan calling him his ‘uttaradhikari': People forget he's also a father
Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan is often seen praising his son Abhishek Bachchan on social media for his performances in films. In a recent post on his blog, Big B expressed his admiration for Abhishek for playing every role with "immense dedication" and called him his "uttaradhikari" (successor). In an interview with ETimes, Abhishek has opened up about the same. Abhishek Bachchan opens up about Amitabh Bachchan's constant praise. When asked about his feelings on being called the true inheritor of his father, Abhishek said, "I think my father and mother would be proud of anything that I do, provided they know that I've given it my best. People forget he's also a father. For us, Amitabh Bachchan is a hero. So, we never look at it from that lens, but he's also a family man! He's a father, he's a grandfather. For some reason we think, 'Oh no, he's not allowed to be that or be human', but he is. He's also a father, and my mother is also a mother. I'm their child. They're allowed to feel the way every other parent would feel." Big B took to his blog and wrote, "... and there is immense admiration for Abhishek. 'Mere bete, bete hone se mere uttaradhikari nahi honge; jo mere uttaradhikari honge woh mere bete honge (My sons, just because you are my sons, shall not be my inheritors ... they that shall be my inheritors, shall be my sons)' – Harivansh Rai Bachchan." He went on to praise Abhishek for playing each role with immense dedication and delivering each character with perfection. He further praised Abhishek's choice of films and said, "'Success comes to those who dare and act'. 'Act' not in reference to acting on stage or film but in life to dare and to act ... Abhishek has ever done that ... he has dared to take on films and characters that challenged him ... and he 'acted' ... he dared to act and be recognised ... my admiration to my inheritor, my son." Abhishek Bachchan's upcoming movie Abhishek will next be seen in the movie Kaalidhar Laapata. Helmed by Madhumita, the film tells the story of a middle-aged man grappling with memory loss, abandonment, and a lifetime of quiet betrayals. When he overhears his siblings' cruel plan to abandon him at the crowded Maha Kumbh Mela, Kaalidhar decides to disappear on his own terms. Fate intervenes in the form of Ballu (Daivik Bhagela), an outspoken, street-smart 8-year-old who's been surviving solo on India's chaotic streets. The film is scheduled to release on ZEE5 on July 4.
