Amitabh Bachchan’s Weekly Sunday Darshan: A Heartwarming Fan Tribute
An Unexpected Surprise Featuring Dimple Kapadia
Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary figure of Indian cinema, has a long-standing professional relationship with fellow actress Dimple Kapadia, having collaborated in several films during the 1990s. Their most notable performances together occurred in “Ajooba” (1990) and “Mrityudaata” (1997), although they also appeared briefly in “Brahmastra” (2022). Recently, a dedicated fan unearthed a rare photo featuring the two stars during a magazine photoshoot, illuminating their past camaraderie. The fan presented this nostalgic image to Bachchan during his regular Sunday Darshan gathering, where he interacts with his admirers.
The photo showcases a candid moment where Dimple rests her head on Amitabh’s knee, surrounded by co-stars Meenakshi Seshadri and Kimi Katkar. The fan was thrilled to submit this piece of memorabilia, and Big B, in turn, graciously autographed it before sharing it on his blog, alongside numerous other submissions received during the event.
While there was no specific commentary from Amitabh regarding the photo itself, he took the opportunity to express his heartfelt thanks to the fans who braved the inclement weather to attend the Sunday gathering at his residence, Jalsa. He acknowledged the dedication of those who came out in significant numbers despite the heavy rains and flooded streets of Mumbai. “Words fail me as well as the emotion to see the dedication despite the winds and rain, flooding the streets… and the well-wishers and the Ef brigade there in all their strength… and love… and all they wish for is to be noticed and given a personal recognition,” he conveyed, reflecting on the unwavering support from his fans.
In a heartfelt message shared in Hindi, he expressed his deep appreciation: “Aap sab badhaee ke paatr hain, ye sneh jo aap sab mujhe bharpoor dete hain isaka mere paas koee bhee varnan nahin hai, keval ye ki ye ek aisa bhaavuk qarz hai jise main lautaane ka prayatn bhee nahin soch sakata” (You all deserve to be congratulated. I am speechless by your love and appreciation towards me. I will always be indebted to you all. I cannot even think of trying to return it).
This interaction highlights not only the bond between Amitabh Bachchan and his fans but also serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of his collaborations with notable actresses like Dimple Kapadia, reflecting nostalgia and admiration among audiences past and present.
