Big B talking about the same topic shared, "They bear with me, thinking it won't be for long. The responses I receive carry a sense of sympathy, as if they think, 'poor guy, he is so uninformed, let him be,' and so on."

"Moreover, I have developed the audacity to address and express issues that I might not have done before. This fearlessness has reached a stage where I voice matters that were previously unheard of," the actor added. In his blog post, Sr Bachchan discussed how he has learned to freely share his ideas and beliefs.

On the work front, Big B was recently seen in Goodbye alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Neena Gupta. He was also a part of Sooraj Barjatya's ‘Uunchai'.
