"Speculations are speculations."
For over 55 years, Amitabh Bachchan has been a dominant force in the Indian film industry.
Despite this, the actor has maintained his privacy regarding his personal life and family.
The Bachchan clan has been in the headlines in recent months.
Speculations are rife that Amitabh’s son, Abhishek Bachchan, is heading for a divorce from his wife, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
This came after several questionable incidents, including Amitabh Bachchan unfollowing Aishwarya on social media.
Aishwarya was also pictured separately from the Bachchan family at public events.
Nobody from the family has made any comments about the rumours.
However, on November 20, 2024, Amitabh Bachchan took to his Tumblr blog.
He conveyed his thoughts about speculation, although he did not mention his son or daughter-in-law.
It seemed quite clear what he was alluding to, as he wrote: “Speculations are speculations.
“They are speculated untruths without verification.
“Verifications are sought by the seekers to authenticate their business and commercials of the profession they are in.
“I shall not challenge their desire to be in the profession of their choice, and I shall appreciate their effort in serving society.
“But untruths, or selected question marked information can be a legal safeguard for them that inform.
“But the seed of suspected belief is sown with this most used emblem – the question mark.
“Write and express whatever you like, but when you follow it up with a question mark, you are not only saying that [it] may be questionable, but also quite surreptitiously wanting the reader to believe and expand on it, so that what you write gets valued repeats.
“Your content is done, not just for that one moment, but for many moments.”
“The reader, when they react to it, gives the content expansion. The reaction could be in belief or in the negative.
“Anything gives credence to the write, and that is the writer’s business – his or her commerce dependence.
“Fill the world with untruth or questioned untruth, and your job is over.
“How it may have affected the subject individual or situation has been hand washed away from your hands.”
Abhishek and Aishwarya married in 2007, and in 2011, they had a daughter named Aaradhya.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Amitabh Bachchan was last seen in the Tamil film, Vettaiyan (2024), where he played Sathyadev Bramhadutt Pande.
In his lengthy career, he has starred in classics including Deewaar (1975), Sholay (1975), and Don (1978).
