In his blog, Amitabh Bachchan shared more details about his Scout days. Sharing more photos, he wrote, “Oh Gosh those were the days at BHS, Allahabad… and the scouting experiences with the troop and the visitor of the head of the Scouts from Australia and how he remembered the number of autographs he signed.” He called the experience “quite remarkable”.
Big B then said that the pictures he has are rather grim and he finds it difficult to recognise himself.
Claiming that he remembers most of his fellow Scouts, the actor wrote, “Strange is it not how you remember those early days and have problems remembering the recent meets.”
Amitabh Bachchan also shared glimpses from his Kaun Banega Crorepati shoot in the blog.
