Amitabh Bachchan
is remembering his late mother, Teji Bachchan. On Wednesday, the senior actor took to his X, formerly Twitter, and shared a few pictures.
In the pictures, a remembrance note with Big B's mother's picture can be seen placed next to the nameplate of the Bachchan.
The picture also showcased Teji Bachchan's birthdate to be August 12, 2025.
He wrote, "T 5470(i) Salutations to Mother; may your blessings always remain in our home, your home."
Big B is the son of Hindi poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan and social activist Teji Bachchan. His mother was close to the former Prime Minister of India,
Indira Gandhi
. In fact, Indira reportedly had written a recommendation letter to the producers of Hindi cinema asking them to consider Big B for roles in their films.
Earlier, Big B had shared that he is learning how to use Instagram at the age of 82. The 'Paa' actor earlier posted a video on the stories section of his Instagram handle saying, "So, I am just getting educated on how to use Instagram, and I hope it works."
It would be exciting to see what the Bollywood stalwart treats the netizens with after getting the hang of the photo-sharing app. In the meantime, Big B remains extremely active on his personal blog.

Prior to this, Big B decided to turn back the clock and posted a picture of an old ticket from his blockbuster hit 'Sholay'. It might be shocking to know that the ticket had cost only Rs 20 at the time. Big B dropped a series of photos of himself on his blog, and amongst the album was the 'Sholay' ticket.
The 'Badla' actor also pointed out that at present, an aerated drink costs the same as a film ticket back in the day. "The 'SHOLAY' ticket... kept and preserved... Rs 20!! the price... !!!!!?? I am told that is the price of an aerated drink in theater halls nowadays... is that a fact?? So much to say, but say not...affection and love," his blog read.
For the unversed, 'Sholay' will complete 50 years of release on August 15, 2025.

Coolie Box Office Collection: Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna's film nears Rs 300 crore in 3 days, overseas century seals top-3 spot
Superstar Rajinikanth's Coolie has set theatres buzzing in 2025. While Hindi audiences have given it only a fair response, the film is ruling in Tamil and other languages. Overseas, it's a full-blown storm. According to Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 38.50 crore in India on its third day, which was a drop of Rs 16.25 crore compared to the day before. Still, the numbers remain solid, taking its domestic three-day total to Rs 158.25 crore. What about the worldwide box office? The real surprise lies overseas. Within two days, Coolie had already collected Rs 103.25 crore internationally. Fans abroad are making Rajini's 50th year in cinema unforgettable. Add that to its Indian numbers, and the worldwide total after three days has touched Rs 283.50 crore. With a budget in the range of Rs 350–400 crore, the film is already inching close to its cost within the opening weekend itself. Is Coolie one of Rajini's biggest hits? Yes. In just three days, Coolie has become the third biggest film of Rajinikanth's career. The only two films ahead are Jailer with Rs 605 crore and 2.0 with Rs 675 crore. Even without day 3's overseas numbers, Coolie is well on track to cross the Rs 300 crore mark, which would cement its place among his all-time blockbusters. Why does the overseas response matter so much? Rajinikanth's magic has always had a global pull. In recent years, international markets have played a key role in pushing his films into record-breaking zones. With Coolie, the trend continues, as audiences outside India have already delivered a century in just two days. By conservative estimates, even if the film adds Rs 12–20 crore from overseas on day 3, the worldwide tally could rise to Rs 295–300 crore. The bigger picture Coolie isn't just another release—it's Rajinikanth's celebration of 50 years in cinema. The film is already his third biggest grosser and is well-positioned to challenge Jailer and 2.0 in the weeks to come. Whether it becomes 2025's top earner or not, one thing is certain—Rajini's storm has once again shaken Indian cinema.
