Bollywood’s three Khans mourn Ahmedabad plane crash, nation grieves together
As rescue operations unfolded on the ground, the Indian film industry came together in solidarity, mourning the lives lost and offering prayers for the victims.
Amitabh Bachchan is unhappy about the fact that not enough has been said on the “silent success” of his latest film, Badla, directed by Sujoy Ghosh.
“About time someone started talking about this silent success .. !! because neither the Producer, nor the distributor, nor the on line Producer, or any else in the Industry, in general .. has even spent a nano second to compliment the success of this film #Badla .. thk u,” the actor tweeted.

Amitabh Bachchan then wrote back questioning Khan that he worked in the film, contributed selflessly in the promotions of the film then why should he even give a party for the film’s success.

Khan known for his quick wit continued the banter. “Sir film aapki hai… acting aapki hai… Hit aapki wajah se hai… aap na hote toh film hi na hoti. Toh party…bhi (Sir, it’s your film, your acting, a hit because of you. The film wouldn’t have been possible without you… So party also…?”
Badla has by far crossed all box-office predictions and done extremely well despite being in the race with big films like Luka Chuppi and Kesari. It is still bringing business. According to latest figures shared by film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film grossed a total of Rs 85.26 crore with gross box-office collections already crossing Rs 100 crore.
