Big B looking forward to childhood again



Thrilled:Aishwarya Rai Bachchan with husband Abhishek Bachchan.

Mumbai: Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who is happy and thrilled about the prospect of becoming a grandfather, feels the grandchild will bring out the child in him.

“Thank you all so much...for all the blessings, greetings and good wishes... yeh sach hai ki pota Dada ke liye uska bachpan lekar aata hai ...wrote a well-wisher...and I could not agree more with this!” Mr. Bachchan wrote on his blog.

“On many an occasion we reminisce the time we lost in not being as much as we wanted to be with our children. Well, this is that moment of compensation. To be a child again, to pamper and give love and company and all things bright and beautiful to the little one that shall take over all our attention in the days to come,” Big B wrote.

On Tuesday night, the 68-year-old actor broke the news through a social networking site of his daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan being pregnant.

Becoming a Dada

“And so to becoming a Dada! The excitement and the joy of the first Bachchan coming after my brother and me and Abhishek and Bhim and Shweta and Nilima, Namrata, Naina. Nana I was, but now Dada!! The doctors just confirmed it this evening and I have shared it immediately,” he said.

Mr. Bachchan is delighted that the legacy of his late father Harivansh Rai Bachchan, a well-known Hindi poet, will be continued. - PTI
