Akshay Kumar is one Bollywood star who sure knows how to respect elders. And whenever it comes to Mr Amitabh Bachchan, it takes him extra time to explain how much he adores him.
The Khiladi of Bollywood has always been highly vocal about the respect he carries for Big B. Akshay & Amitabh have worked in many films together and most of the times, he has played the son of Sr Bachchan.
Recently Akshay & Big B both were present at the 48th International Film Festival of India along with many other Bollywood stars. The 75-year-old Bollywood star was honoured with the title of International Personality of the Year.
Akshay Kumar while addressing the audience spoke highly of Amitabh Bachchan and went on to call him the father of Bollywood. He went on to say that if America has Batman, Spider Man, Superman then we have our own super hero, Angry Young Man.
After saying this he went off the stage and touched the feet of Amitabh Bachchan in front of everyone.
Akshay himself shared the video on Twitter and wrote-
America has Batman, Spider-Man, Superman…but India and my superhero is our very own Angry Young Man, @SrBachchan Sir, rightly the Indian Personality of the Year ! #IFFI2017.
