Veteran Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan once again demonstrated why he’s not only revered for his acting but also respected for his dignity and humility. On Tuesday, the 81-year-old superstar responded to a social media user’s jibe about his age and longevity with remarkable grace, replying with folded hands — both literally and figuratively.
The incident unfolded on X (formerly Twitter), where Bachchan remains highly active and regularly interacts with fans. A user took a dig at the actor, commenting on his long-standing presence in the industry and questioning how much longer he intended to stay in the limelight. The tone was mocking, implying that the actor’s time should be up.

Rather than reacting with anger or sarcasm, Amitabh Bachchan replied with a brief yet powerful response:
“ with folded hands… my gratitude for the concern… may you have a long and fulfilling life too.”
The dignified retort quickly went viral, garnering praise from fans and celebrities alike. Many lauded Big B’s poise, calling it a masterclass in how to handle negativity with elegance.
One user commented, “That’s how legends respond — with grace, not hate.” Another added, “His humility at this age and stage is what keeps him timeless.”
Amitabh Bachchan, whose illustrious career spans over five decades, continues to remain a force in Indian cinema with upcoming projects, weekly appearances on television, and a strong social media presence. At an age when most actors retire from public life, Bachchan not only keeps working but does so with unmatched energy and passion.
This incident only further reinforces his status—not just as the ‘Shahenshah’ of Bollywood—but also as a symbol of maturity and class in a sometimes-chaotic online world.
