Amitabh Bachchan gets emotional at Anand Pandit's bash; quotes his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan while sharing a heartfelt personal message

With many celebrities gracing the 60th birthday bash of Anand Pandit, it seems that it turned out to be one of the biggest showbiz party in recent times. Among them was also megastar Amitabh Bachchan who attended the same with son Abhishek Bachchan. The veteran star showed us a glimpse of his emotional side as he made a heartfelt speech for his close friend on this special occasion wherein he also quoted a line from his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan, a renowned Indian poet.

For the unversed, producer Anand Pandit recently hosted a birthday as he turned 60 and along with that he also celebrated the completion of two successful decades of his real estate company Lotus Developers. While Amitabh Bachchan was also the chief guest, he joined Pandit in cutting a 6-tier cake at the celebrations and also unveiled a biography and a coffee table book inspired by the producer's life, which they shared over the past two decades.

During the event, as the friends bonded, Pandit also showered praise on him, to which Mr. Bachchan humbly responded, "You have praised me so much but I don't think I am worthy of this admiration. As my father would say, 'I have no desire to be famous. That you know me is enough.' You said you were very inspired by the character of Vijay in Trishul but the credit for the resonance of that character should go to the writers, not me."

With obvious emotion, he dwelled upon the close bond that they shared over the past two decades and also praised Pandit for the qualities that turned him from an industry outsider into one of its biggest success stories. "Anand Bhai is someone who always brings with him a lot of optimism and joy. One may be facing any problem, but by his mere presence, he dissipates the gloom. He has a lot of humility and simplicity. He is a very friendly, very respectful person and he has lived his life with a lot of discipline. I believe Anand Bhai is a true heir and a worthy son to his father. It is because of the blessings of his parents that he is today known as Anand Pandit and the man behind Lotus Developers. My heartfelt congratulations to him on this special day."

Other guests at the well-attended bash included Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan, Kartik Aryan, Jackie and Tiger Shroff, among others.
