दिवाली 2025ः पटाखे फोड़ते हुए जल गए थे अमिताभ बच्चन: फिल्म शराबी की शूटिंग में आई दिक्कत, जेब में छिपाना पड़ा हाथ; वही स्टाइल हो गया फेमस

Today, on the special occasion of Diwali, we are telling you the story related to Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, when he once burnt his hand while celebrating Diwali. After this he was not able to move his thumb for two months.

In the year 1984, Amitabh Bachchan was shooting the film Sharabi. Diwali fell at this time. While celebrating Diwali, he burst firecrackers, due to which his hand got burnt. When the shooting of the film was resumed, Amitabh’s hand was undergoing treatment. When he reached the set, the injury caused by the firecracker was clearly visible. In such a situation, the film’s director Prakash Mehta suggested him to hide his hand by putting it in his pant pocket. Amitabh followed his advice and did the same. Although in the film Sharabi, Amitabh had put his hand in the pocket of his pants out of compulsion, but when the film was released, this style became quite popular and later it became his style statement.

Amitabh Bachchan had also told through a post that when his hand was burnt, he could not move his thumb for 2 months.

Used to compete with neighbors during Diwali

Amitabh Bachchan once shared a funny memory related to Diwali in Kaun Banega Crorepati. He had told that in his childhood he used to compete with the children living in the neighborhood in bursting firecrackers. Big B had said, ‘When I grew up and got money, we started buying a lot of firecrackers to burst. We used to burst them in the ceiling. There used to be competition, because our neighborhood children also used to burst crackers on the rooftop. There was a competition as to whose firecracker made more noise. If they (neighbors) used to pay 4, we would pay 5. This continued throughout the night.
