Megastar Amitabh Bachchan recently left his fans concerned after he wrote ‘Time to go’ on his social media handle without any context. Within no time, the post went viral, with his fans wondering if the actor was okay and if he was hinting at his retirement.
Big B finally broke silence on the speculations on his show Kaun Banega Crorepati. In a promo shared by the makers, a fan can be seen questioning the actor about his viral ‘Time to go’ tweet. To that, the 82-year-old replied, “Usme ek line tha jaane ka samay hai… toh usme kuch gadbadi hai kya?”
Another fan from the audience pit then asked where was the actor planning to go, and it was then that he finally explained his post. “Arey bhaisahab, humko kaam par jaane ka samay aa gaya hai…gajab baat karte ho yaar! Aur raat ko jab 2 baje yahan se chhutti milti hai, toh ghar pahuchte-pahuchte 1-2 baj jaate hain. Woh likhte-likhte humko neend aa gayi, toh woh wahin tak reh gaya… Jaane ka waqt aur hum so gaye!” he quipped.
Big B’s answer was met with a thunderous applause, and fans were relieved to find out the retirement rumours were, after all, just rumours, and that the megastar is here to stay for a long time.
However, the actor shared yet another cryptic post in the wee hours of Friday. He took to his X handle and wrote, “Jaaye ki ruke?” Fans wondered what the thought behind the post was.
On the work front, Big B will be next seen in the film, Section 84, which has been both written and directed by Ribhu Dasgupta. He also has the second installment of the blockbuster Kalki 2898 AD in the pipeline, in which he plays the role of the cursed and immortal Mahabharata character, Ashwatthama. The franchise also features Prabhas and Deepika Padukone in lead roles.
