Aap mere lie na keval abhineta ke roop me prernatamak hai balki akhri rasta se uunchai tak aapke sath kaam krke jeevan ke alag alag pehlu ke bare me seekhne ko bhaut kuch mila.
(Respected Amit ji! Wishing you a very happy birthday. May God bless you with a long and healthy life. You are an inspiration to me. I have learnt a lot from you from 'Aakhri Raasta' to 'Uunchaai') @amitabhbachchan #AmitabhBachchan #Legend #Inspiration #Greatest #Actor," he wrote.
