Amitabh Bachchan receives hilarious responses

Netizens quickly flooded the comment section with witty remarks, suggesting everything from posting selfies with Rekha Ji to raising social issues, and even philosophizing that "don't run after followers, run after purpose." One user jokingly suggested unfollowing Jaya Bachchan, while another cheekily advised Bachchan to reply to fans, claiming his follower count would skyrocket to 50 billion.
A user wrote, "Raise social issues which will increase followers." A second user commented, "Rekha Ji k saath selfie daal k dekhiye."

A netizen reacted, "Don't run after followers. Run after purpose. When you make the world better, the world follows you." Others joked around, saying "Sir.....if you start replying to your ardent fans.....49 Millions would surpass to only become 50 Billion sir ji" and "Jaya Bachchan Ko unfollow kar dijiye Krupa wahi ruki hui hai - that's it."
