Here's the reason why Amitabh Bachchan has issued an apology on his social media handles.
Amitabh Bachchan has issued an apology after mispronouncing Marathi word 'kachra' in a video. The 81-year-old superstar had shared a video on his Instagram, Facebook, and X (formerly Twitter) accounts on Wednesday in which he pledged not to litter on streets. However, his friend Sudesh Bhosale, pointed out a mistake the actor made in the video. Bhosale has sung various hits for Bachchan such as 'Jumma Chumma De De', 'Sona Sona', 'Say Shava Shava', and 'Meri Makhna Meri Soniye'.
On Thursday, Big B shared another video on his social media handles, where he narrated the same and apologised for his mistake. The caption of the post read, "Had done a video where pronunciation was wrong. So corrected it. Apologies." He began the video by saying in Hindi, "Hello, I'm Amitabh Bachchan. A few days ago, I shared a video on raising social awareness stating that I won't litter. I also said the same thing in Marathi language, and my pronunciation in Marathi was a bit incorrect." "The word 'kachra' in Marathi was mispronounced. My friend Sudesh Bhosale informed me about the mispronunciation. Hence, I'm making this video, this time with correct pronunciation," he added.
