Amitabh Bachchan gifts ‘Silsila’ jacket to labourer

MUMBAI, Nov 21:
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has donated his “Silsila” jacket to a construction worker, in a bid to extend his support for the cause of distributing clothes to needy people in winters.
The 73-year-old “Piku” star was in the capital yesterday to support “Call to Action: TB Free Haryana” and visited a construction site along with two boys, who appeared on his TV show, to donate clothes.
“… Driving into a deserted construction site to support these 2 boys who had come on our TV show where they told us about what they did with discarded clothes… Distributed them to the poor. I surprised them with my visit and gave away many of my personal clothes… One particular jacket that I wore in ‘Silsila’,” he wrote on his blog.
The actor also posted a picture of the elated construction worker holding his cream coloured jacket.
Bachchan will next be seen in Bejoy Nambiar’s “Wazir”, which is slated to release on January 8, 2016. (PTI)
