Sad news for all is that Amitabh ji will not celebrate his birthday this year due to a series of unfortunate happenings in the family. The reason behind this, as per a Bollywood Hungama report is due to two consecutive deaths in the family. Daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda’s father-in-law, Rajan Nanda’s demise and his wife, Ritu Nanda’s mother, Krishna Raj Kapoor’s passing away has made Amit ji decide that he will not celebrate his birthday this year. Rishi Kapoor’s ill-health is also one of the major concerns.
But his family members ensured that this legend receives heartfelt wishes, and who can do that better from the dear Bachchan bahu, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan! The actress took to Instagram and posted two unseen pictures of her sasur ji, wherein, she expresses her wishes. While one wish is from the bahu directly to her dear ‘Pa’, another unseen picture that she shared, has a wish on behalf of his granddaughter, Aaradhya. Sharing a rockstar kind of picture of Amitabh Bachchan, with ‘Happy Birthday’ written on the background, Aishwarya wrote, “MAY THE LIGHT KEEP SHINING GOD BLESS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PA.” Sharing another picture with Aaradhya, the Kajra Re star wrote, “HAPPYYY 76th BIRTHDAY Dadaji.” Here are the pictures:
