Amitabh Bachchan Issues An Apology Note

Amitabh Bachchan has embraced the new gen perfectly and uses the technology to maximum in keeping his fans and followers entertained. Always active on social media, even from the hospital while he was fighting against COVID, Big B kept sharing his thoughts on his Twitter handle with beautiful words.

The man who takes keen interest in poems, the other day shared a small poem encouraging everyone to stay strong and full of hope in difficult days and credited it to his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan along with his doctored image of kicking Coronavirus.

T 3617 –
तू न रुकेगा कभी ; यू ना मुड़ेगा कभी ; तू ना झुकेगा कभी ;
कर शपथ कर शपथ कर शपथ ;
अग्निपथ अग्निपथ अग्निपथ !! pic.twitter.com/hNkFUIIw9K

As soon Big B posted it, he came to realise that the poem is actually written by Prasoon Joshi. Taking to his Twitter handle, Mr Bachchan issued an apology letter to the poet accepting his mistake and shared the entire poem to his online family.

CORRECTION : कल T 3617 pe जो कविता छपी थी , उसके लेखक , बाबूजी नहीं हैं । वो ग़लत था । उसकी रचना , कवि प्रसून जोशी ने की है ।
इसके लिए मैं क्षमा प्रार्थी हूँ । 🙏🙏

T 3618 – 'आस्‍था'
~ हरिवंश राय बच्चन

तुमने
प्रतिमा का सिर काट लिया,
पर लोगों ने उसे सिर झुकाना नहीं छोड़ा है।
तुमने मूर्ति को नहीं तोड़ा,
लोगों की आस्‍था को नहीं तोड़ा है।
और आस्‍था ने
बहुत बार
कटे सिर को कटे धर से जोड़ा है। pic.twitter.com/zJyVPZgFhJ
