Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan had a simple celebration on the occasion of Holi. Held at his home with his family by his side, Bachchan posted pictures from the celebration on his social media accounts. The movies featured him with his wife Jaya Bachchan, daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda, and granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda.
Bachchan Sr. posted a photo from the Holika Dahan ritual, where he was seen putting a ‘tilak’ on his wife Jaya’s forehead. He captioned the photo, “होली की अनेक अनेक शुभकामनाएँ। ॥ ❤️ ”. Several fans and celebrities showered love on the veteran Bollywood couple. Their daughter Shweta wrote, “How cute. Happy Holi.” Actor Ronit Roy wrote, “God bless. God bless. God bless ❤️.”
Sharing pictures from Holika Dahan on his blog, Bachchan also wrote that celebrations this year were muted, because of deaths in the family. He wrote, “holika burns amidst the moon in its brightness .. evil be destroyed .. peace and well being prevail .. the clouds of Holi bring life and light .. and may the varied colours be the colours - bright shining and in the happiest of celebrations .. celebration shall be restricted .. passings in the family on the day .. distant from home .. and the protocol of the virus ..”
Amitabh was recently seen in Nagraj Manjule’s ‘Jhund’. He will be next seen in Ajay Devgn’s ‘Runway 34’, which also stars Rakul Preet Singh and Angira Dhar.
