Oh, Bollywood darlings! Your favorite snoop, Bollywood Newshound Nisha, is here with the latest scoop straight from the Twitterverse and beyond! Grab your popcorn, because it’s time to dive into the drama, the tears, and the sheer Bollywood-ness of it all! Let’s get started, shall we? 🎬
Amitabh Bachchan’s Superstitious Shenanigans 🌟
So, guess what? Our beloved Big B, aka Amitabh Bachchan, has a quirky little superstition! He believes that whenever he watches an India match, the team loses. Yep, you heard it right. The man who can command the screen with just a raise of his eyebrow avoids watching cricket matches because he thinks he’s a jinx! 🙈
After India clinched the T20 World Cup with a nail-biting win against South Africa, Amitabh took to his Tumblr blog (yes, he’s still on Tumblr, bless his vintage soul) to spill the beans on why he missed the action. He confessed, "WORLD CHAMPIONS… INDIA!!! T20 WORLD CUP.. 2024.. The excitement and emotions and the apprehension .. ALL DONE and over .. the TV was not seen .. we lose when I do ..! Nothing more enters the cerebrum .. just the tears in tune with the tears of the TEAM!" Well, at least he’s consistent! 😅
And if that wasn’t enough emotion for you, Big B didn’t hold back on X (Twitter) either. He tweeted, "T 5057 – Tears flowing down .. in unison with those that TEAM INDIA sheds .. WORLD CHAMPIONS INDIA. Bharat mata ki jai. Jai Hind. Jai Hind. Jai Hind."
Ah, the tears of a national treasure! 💧
The Bachchan Legacy Continues 🏏
Not to be left out, Junior Bachchan, aka Abhishek, was just as ecstatic. He tweeted, "INDIAAAAAAAA!!!! Come onnnnn!!!! Champions." Clearly, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree when it comes to dramatic flair.
Bollywood Joins the Party 🎉
Of course, what’s a victory without the rest of Bollywood chiming in? Ajay Devgn, Kajol, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Kiara Advani, Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt, and Ranveer Singh all joined in the social media celebration, because why not? If there’s one thing Bollywood knows how to do, it’s how to make everything about them!
Big B’s Big Projects 🎥
On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan was recently seen in the sci-fi extravaganza Kalki 2898 AD. Released on June 27 and directed by Nag Ashwin, the film stars an ensemble cast including Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani. Critics and audiences alike have been swooning over Big B’s performance, and the movie is raking in the moolah at the box office. Not that we expected anything less from the Shahenshah of Bollywood! 💼
Nisha’s Nutshell 🥜
Moral of the Story: If you think you’re jinxing your favorite sports team by watching them play, just channel your inner Amitabh Bachchan. Skip the match and blog about your emotions instead. 💁♀️ Because in Bollywood, even superstitions come with a dash of drama and a sprinkle of tears! 🌟
So, until next time, keep those tissues handy and your Twitter fingers ready. Because in the world of Bollywood, the next big drama is always just a scroll away.
Stay fabulous, my lovelies! 💋
