A Tradition Spanning Over Four Decades
Amitabh Bachchan’s Sunday Darshan is not just a routine, but a spiritual ritual for both the actor and his fans. For over 40 years, the Bollywood icon has stepped out every Sunday to meet the crowd waiting outside his Juhu residence. In an earlier blog post, Amitabh revealed he removes his shoes before greeting fans, calling it a gesture of devotion.
He had written: “I do observe though that the numbers are in lesser magnitude and the enthusiasm has lessened and the screams of joy now transferred to the mobile camera… and that is more evident now, an indication that time has moved on and nothing lasts forever.”
