When stylist Nitasha Gaurav received a reply from Jaya Bachchan on her fan mail written to Amitabh Bachchan in 1982!
Ranveer Singh’s ace stylist Nitasha Gaurav is no new name in the fashion circuit. But little did we know, that along with fashion, this creative genius has a thing for Bollywood films as well.
Yes, Bollywood’s ‘Big B’ Amitabh Bachchan has found a fangirl in our 'Baba' Ranveer's stylist Nitasha! Take a look at her post right here:
Gaurav took a stroll down the memory lane and shared some pictures of the letter she received on her social media handle. Being a die-hard Amitabh fan, a worried little Natasha wrote out to him during the time of his infamous accident on the sets of Coolie, back in 1982. “When he met with his infamous accident on the sets of Coolie, we kids were as concerned as the next adult. Many evenings ended with us discussing his health, having picked up nuggets of information from our parents’ conversations. Fully caught up in the emotion that had seized the nation, we decided to write to him. So off we went to our houses, dug out our snazziest letterheads and wrote him heartfelt messages wishing him a speedy recovery. We didn’t have an address, but hello, this was Amitabh Bachchan, so we wrote his name and Bombay on the envelope, licked it shut and posted it.”, read an excerpt from her post.
To her surprise, she received a reply to her fan mail along with a picture of Amitabh by none other than Jaya Bachchan. “Cut to a few weeks later, I get back from school and my grandmother tells me a letter has come for me. I open it, and lo and behold - it’s a letter from Mrs Bachchan. I had actually got a reply!!”, her note read.
'With your kind prayers and good wishes, Amitabh is back home. He wishes me to convey to you his personal thanks and hopes to be back on his feet gain very soon’, read Jaya’s letter.
She concluded the post saying she have scratched out the name on the letter as it’s the name her family addresses her by and is not for public consumption! “Ps: I’ve scratched out my name because it’s the name my family calls me by and it’s not for public consumption.”, she said.
