Amitabh Bachchan gets emotional over recent ad with daughter

The plot revolves around the idea of honesty

Mumbai (Pakistan Point News – 19th July, 2018) Bollywood super star Amitabh Bachchan recently appeared in an ad with her daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda.

The ad is finally out and though it has already got controversial with bankers calling it an attempt to denigrate and cast aspersions on the banking system of the country for Kalyan Jewellers's personal gains.

The 1.30-minute ad starring Amitabh Bachchan and Manju Warrier in Malayalam and Amitabh Bhachchan and Shweta Bachchan Nanda in Hindi weaves a plot around Kalyan Jewellers' tagline ‘Vishwasam’ or honesty. It shows the father-daughter visiting a bank regarding Bachchan's pension, only to be spurned by uncaring and unhelpful officers. Finally, it is revealed that his pension has been credited twice and they had come to inform this and return the money. The bank officer asks them to keep it as the procedure to return the money is tiresome.

"Who will even know?" the manager asks to which Bachchan replies that a wrongdoing is a wrongdoing regardless of who knows.

Amitabh Bachchan had taken to Twitter to call the ad “emotional”.

“T 2870 - Emotional moment for me .. tears welling up every time I see it .. daughters are the BEST !!” he said in his tweet.
