Amitabh Bachchan plant a tree on his mother's birthday

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan is known for his daily social media updates. At TTN Cinemas, we recently reported on the Green India Trend where celebrities such as Vijay and Mahesh Babu took part in planting trees wherever they can, helping our country become greener and nicer to live in.

The latest is that Big B has also joined in and he has posted a picture of himself planting a tree in his bungalow.
On his instagram, he posted: “This large ‘gulmohar’ tree was planted as a sapling by me when we got our first house Prateeksha in 1976 .. the recent storm brought it down .. but yesterday on my Mother’s birthday Aug 12th I replanted a fresh new Gulmohar tree in her name ..?? at the same spot !”

The recent Mumbai floods had brought that tree down, and Big B took his mom’s birthday as the perfect time to re-plant it. Looks like this movement is far from dying down!
