Mumbai, November 01: Actor Amitabh Bachchan has revealed that he was threatened by an unnamed person via a text message for visiting a temple and a dargah.
The 67-year-old actor had described his religious routine in an earlier blog, which led the unknown person to threaten him against doing so but Bachchan is undeterred.
“That I visit a Muslim dargah and a Hindu temple has been viciously criticised by an unknown element on my mobile. He says it is incorrect of me to do so and that
I should never do it again,” Bachchan wrote on his blog.
The actor had visited the Haji Ali dargah on Thursday morning and then went to a nearby temple. He also visited a small dargah and finally went to Siddhivinayak temple.
Despite the warning, Bachchan insists he is unaffected by such reactions. “I am going to do it again, and shall continue to do it. And I want to see how you are going to stop me. If you have the courage and guts, come and get me,” he wrote.
The man has also warned the actor that his latest film Aladin, which hit the theatres on Friday, will not be successful because of Bachchan’s act of visiting both the dargah and temple.
“If the film has merit, no force on earth will be able to stop its worth. If the film is weak and does not have merit, no force on earth shall be able to make it a success.
At the cost of every film of mine failing, I am not going to change my routine,” wrote Bachchan.
