What is the one thing that is always constant in Mumbai? Yes, you guessed it right; ‘Traffic jams’! Well, from the looks of it even Amitabh Bachchan was trying to avoid the heavy jams like every other Mumbaikar. In a rather unprecedented move, Bachchan took a bike ride in a stranger’s vehicle to avoid a traffic jam and reach his location faster.
The megastar took to Instagram and shared a picture of the ride, thanking a stranger for his kindness in letting him ride a pillion to work.
The 80-year-old shared that he did not know the man who drove him to work, but thanks to him, the actor could reach the location and time.
“Thank you for the ride buddy .. don’t know you .. but you obliged and got me on time to the location of work .. faster and in avoidance of the unsolvable traffic jams .. thank you capped, shorts and yellowed T–shirt owner,” Sr. Bachchan wrote in a cheeky caption.
The bike ride was a trip down the memory lane for BigB which reminded him of his college days and fun times of group picnics.
Taking to his blog on Sunday, the actor shared pictures of the same and wrote about his weekly meet and greet with his fans and his work.
“Sunday permissions are given to specific regions which can be blocked off for the work we do… and this is work and the well-wishers after work… Ride on the bike and the driving enthusiasm never does run away… The early years come tumbling by in the thoughts and the mind… those College days and the group picnics and the odd occasion when the family car was allowed to be used .. such fun times .. carefree and just,” the actor wrote in his blog.
BigB noted that one should be mindful of caution and care and above all, “regulatory lives” which he said was “part of living.” The actor also shared that often he has the desire to take over the car and drive himself to work.
“Many a time there is desire to take over the vehicle and drive it to work .. for the way and the method the carrier drives is of concern .. is of the breaking of regulations .. is the unknown factor of how did they get these driving licenses, when their basic skills are challenged .. no helmet, no regulation or discipline to adhere and respect traffic signals .. blatantly dis regarding them and giving a damn to the law or the rules .. The frustrating turns to anger and often is the urge to get out of the car and give them a telling .. but the obvious restraints prevent it,” he further wrote.
