Amitabh Bachchan’s humble birthday tweet to remind Anushka Sharma about his ‘missed’ text cracks up Twitterati

Over the years, social media has become a hub for celebrities to share snippets of not only their personal life but also shed light on their thoughts, political views and more. Only recently, Anushka Sharma celebrated her 30th birthday and on the occasion, wishes for the Pari star poured from all around the world. However, amidst the celebration, Sharma seemed to have missed megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s birthday text.

Interestingly, senior Bachchan did not let his wish be ignored and took to Twitter to make the young actor know that he had wished her. Big B tweeted, “@AnushkaSharma .. Anushka .. this is Amitabh Bachchan @Srbachchan .. wished you on May 1st via sms .. no response .. checked they said you changed number .. sent greetings again .. love and wishes .. you looked radiant at the IPL game last night.”

Quick to respond, Sharma tweeted by thanking the senior star and also by saying that she was simultaneously responding to his text too. Her tweet read, “Thank you so much Sir, for remembering my birthday and sending your kind wishes! (Responding to your sms as I tweet this) 😊😊 http://twitter.com/srbachchan/status/991562719038816256 …”

 Interestingly, the exchange between the two started a series of jokes on social media. Twitterati were quick to point out Big B’s ‘typical Indian uncle’ behaviour and also shared some similar experiences they had with their elder relatives. Here are some of the reactions:
