Amitabh Bachchan often takes to social media to express his gratitude towards his parents, Harivash Rai Bachchan and Teji Bachchan. The actor maintains an active daily blog and in his latest entry, he wrote about how one’s parents become their lives and their parenting stays with us even long after they are gone.

Amitabh Bachchan wrote, “Our parents and their parenting becomes our lives .. we refer to them at each step… ‘What would my parents have done in any/this/that/whatever situation?’ And the solution stares in your face…” “Blessed we are, that they, our parents, live among us in their blessings and love… I never keep them too far away from me… or any situation,” the actor added.

The veteran actor’s late mother, Teji Harivash Rai Srivastava Bachchan, was born on August 12, 1914 and passed away on December 21, 2007. Teji Bachchan was a social activist and also taught psychology in pre-independence Lahore. She had two sons with Harivansh Rai Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan and Ajitabh Bachchan.

His late father, Harivash Rai Bachchan, is a celebrated name in Hindi literature. He was a poet and writer of the Nayi Kavita literary movement of the early 20th century. He was born on 27 November 1907 and passed away when he was 95 years old on 18 January 2003.

Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan is busy with the shoot of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16. He wrote in his blog, “The story of the day is a story .. each day brings different channels of opportunities and resolves .. of the fight to do your best .. of the desire to be able to deliver what you have been employed for .. and to be able to live up to the expectations of the audience, the janta janardan, who are ever respected as godly beings…”

“Each day there is the test, the examination, the effort to be able to accept their likes and dislikes and make efforts to improve on them .. for likes and dislikes change rapidly .. as rapidly as they make you rise, equally rapidly they bring you down…Alright, enough of the obvious… but never take the obvious for granted .. their grant is the grant that desires respect .. an integrity that lives after you even,” he added.

Besides hosting KBC 16, Amitabh Bachchan is also still basking in the praise for his performance in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD with Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan.
