Veteran Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan has responded to online trolls criticising the cybercrime awareness caller tune featuring his voice. Addressing the backlash over the government’s initiative to spread awareness about digital fraud, the 'Sholay' actor replied to several troll comments on X (formerly Twitter).
On Monday, the actor shared a post on his official X handle in Hindi that reads, "T 5419 - जी हाँ हिज़ूर, मैं भी एक प्रशंसक हूँ तो!!! ???" and translates to "Yes, sir, I’m a fan too. So??." Replying to this, a Twitter user wrote, "Toh phone pe bolna band kro bhay." Big B reacted to the remarks and wrote, "सरकार को बोलो भई, उन्होंने हमसे कहा सो किया (Sarkar ko bolo bhai, unhone jo kaha humne kar diya (Tell the government, I did what they told me to do).
