Amitabh Bachchan and Dilip Kumar
Amitabh Bachchan shared a heartwarming letter from his “idol and inspiration” Dilip Kumar along with some throwback pictures on Sunday. The duo had a close bond and had previously worked together in the movie ‘Shakti.’
Taking to Instagram, Big B posted the letter along with nostalgic photos. The letter expressed Dilip Kumar’s admiration, stating, “On Amitabh and my admiration My Dear Amitabh: With tears of pride in her eyes, Saira handed over the printout of your eloquent tribute to my work in your blog. I read it once, then again and again. As you yourself would be keenly aware, we actors are completely oblivious to ourselves and our surroundings while we perform, and even when we watch our work in the rushes shown to us, our senses and vision are trained to detect shortcomings more than accomplishments.”

Dilip Kumar praised Amitabh in the letter, expressing, “If any Indian actor, in my personal opinion, deserves the world’s most coveted award, it is you. I have heard so much about Paa which we didn’t catch up with. You know how Saira is – she never could see me die in my films, and she could not muster the courage to see your death scene in Paa.”
The letter concluded with gratitude, “Thank you, Amitabh, for your warm love and good wishes. May God keep you, Jaya, and your family happy always.”
Sharing the post, Amitabh expressed his feelings, writing, “What can one say when you receive the blessings from THE Ultimate actor, DILIP KUMAR, my idol and inspiration.”
On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan is ready to appear in the sci-fi action thriller film ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ alongside Deepika Padukone and Prabhas. He also has a courtroom drama film ‘Section 84’ in the pipeline.
