The superstar of Bollywood Amitabh Bachchan has been sweet to send birthday wishes to celebs via  SMS. However, much to his surprise, he doesn’t get a response every time. And the Pink actor does not like being ignored, making it a point to take to social media to remind the birthday boys and girls to acknowledge the wishes sent there way by him.

Anushka Sharma, who celebrated her birthday on 1 May, was the latest to get such a reminder from Big B.

In the past too, Big B had to remind people to reply to his wishes. Here are the other actors who made it to the ‘ignored text list’.

Akshay Kumar, was your phone really jammed?

We guess Preity Zinta replied to Bachchan through a text.

Well, Big B we think social media is the place where you have more chances of getting a prompt reply, than via SMS.
