In the latest episode of the game reality show, Kaun Banega Crorepati 14, Amitabh Bachchan opened up about his home, Pratiksha and shared the story behind its name. Revealing the reason behind his father and iconic poet, late Harivansh Rai Bachchan's decision to choose such a unique and beautiful word, Pratiksha to name their house. Big B revealed that when he had asked the same question to his father, he had told him that he had written a poem in which he had penned a line that speaks about this particular word, 'pratiksha'. Recalling the same, Amitabh Bachchan said:

"People ask me why did you keep your house name Pratiksha but I convey to them that I did not choose it my father did. Therefore I questioned my father why did you keep the name Pratiksha, he has a poem where there is a line that says swagat sabke liye hain par nahi hain kisi ke liye Pratiksha."

Just like every son in the world, Amitabh Bachchan was also extremely close to his parents, the late Harivansh Rai Bachchan and Teji Bachchan.

"Past the midnight of the 23rd and the 24th has begun .. the Wedding Anniversary of Ma and Babuji. January 24 1942 .. a marriage that broke barriers, systems created the acceptance of the name Bachchan, beyond caste and creed .. and brought me into this wide world."

Once in a throwback interview with IANS, Amitabh Bachchan was asked to reflect on his legacy in Indian cinema and the greatness he had achieved in his career. However, instead of reflecting on it, Big B had clearly stated that his legacy was nothing compared to his father, the late Harivansh Rai Bachchan's heritage. Adding more to it, the humble son added that it is his father's untouched legacy that he would like to talk about. He had said:

"It is coming on to 50 years in public life... That is as far as I am personally concerned. But I have been in public life from the day I was born. I was always the son of Dr Harivansh Rai Bachchan, eminent poet, litterateur, having public presence far greater than mine. I have no legacy. My father's legacy is what I am interested in, and I shall try always to further it."

Well, we are in love with Harivansh Rai Bachchan's beautiful vision behind naming his house 'pratiksha'. What do you think? Let us know.
