Seems like Amitabh Bachchan had a nostalgic Sunday filled with memories of his father Harivanshrai Bachchan and National Award winning film 'Anand'.atleast his Sunday-tweets and blog post say so.
With a picture of the study-room full of his father's books in his Delhi-house 'Sopaan,' Big-B tweeted, "I sit on my Father's desk in Delhi, surrounded by his books, but more his inspiration by being on his chair."
"From this chair and desk he wrote the last chapter of his biography and many of his last poems!!," he added.
In his official blog, the 73-year-old actor elaborated his thoughts, going down his memory lane, said that the house 'Sopaan,' which means staircase, was built when Harivanshrai Bachchan retired from Government service and from the Rajya Sabha.
Further, speaking on the name of the house, he said, "when my Father saw the house the first thing he noticed about it was that it had an incredible amount of steps on the stairs that covered the entire house .. hence 'sopaan'."
Amitabh, who is now in the National Capital for Shoojit Sircar's upcoming production venture 'Eve,' added, "Actually that is my travel gear into the city of Delhi, but most of what you see shall be the face of the film in my character .."
