Actor Amitabh Bachchan makes it a point to meet his fans outside his Mumbai residence Jalsa every Sunday, so much so that it has become a ritual for him that he has been following for almost four decades now. Amitabh’s unparalleled popularity continues to inspire others including his son and actor Abhishek Bachchan. This Sunday, when Big B was busy executing his weekly Sunday darshan tradition, Abhishek was captured standing on the first floor of the bungalow, gazing happily at his father.

Like every week, Amitabh Bachchan stood near the gate of his residence and greeted fans with folded hands. A huge number of fans gathered once a week to see Big B at a close range.

Amitabh was seen in a white kurta-pyjama and a pink and black jacket. He also wore a headgear. But this Sunday, the limelight was also taken by his actor son Abhishek Bachchan. As the camera panned towards Jalsa’s balcony, Abhishek was spotted standing and looking at his dad with a smile. After Abhishek found the camera zooming at him, he too smiled and waved at the crowd.

Amitabh also addressed the Sunday darshan and wrote, “It’s another early call tomorrow so shall be off .. But the Sunday meet at the gate was as always awesome .. the numbers increase I think and the love even more .. I am so blessed.”
