The Sunday tradition of Amitabh Bachchan

For decades, hundreds of admirers from different cities and states have gathered outside Jalsa every Sunday evening to catch a fleeting glimpse of Big B, wave at him, and take photographs.

First outing post hospitalisation rumours

This specific Sunday appearance carried extra emotional weight for the veteran actor’s fandom. It marked Amitabh Bachchan’s very first public outing following a wave of intense online rumors claiming he had been admitted to Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital.

The Kalki 2898 AD actor had previously brushed aside the health scares by sharing a characteristically poetic and cryptic post on his social media accounts, with industry insiders reaffirming that he is “absolutely fine.” His appearance at the gates of Jalsa was meant to reassure his worried fans, though the sheer enthusiasm of the crowd ultimately led to the chaotic mishap.

The 83-year-old cinema legend remains as busy as ever. Amitabh Bachchan is set to reprise his highly acclaimed role as the immortal Ashwatthama in the highly anticipated sequel to the sci-fi epic Kalki 2898 AD. Additionally, fans will soon see him in Section 84, an upcoming courtroom drama directed by Ribhu Dasgupta. The film, which has already wrapped up production and is awaiting an official release date, features an ensemble cast including Diana Penty, Nimrat Kaur, and Abhishek Banerjee.
