Along with the picture, Amitabh wrote, “And tonight shall be a latish night… Abhishek turns 49… and his new year shall be brought in… Feb 5, 1976… Time has passed rapidly…!!!!” He further reflected, “At times, there is a desire to express thoughts… but with the universal information bureau spread across every corner of the hemisphere, the arousal of many tributaries, not necessarily compassionate with the text, gets mutilated… So…”
