Big B On Ratan Tata’s Demise: An Era Has Just Passed Away
Mumbai, Oct 10: Veteran Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan has mourned the demise of the late industrialist Ratan Tata, who passed away on October 9.
Big B took to his Instagram, and shared an old picture of himself with the legend. In the picture, Big B can be seen escorting Ratan Tata. Big B was also present at the NCPA lawns in the city to pay tributes to the departed soul.
The actor wrote in the caption, “An era has just passed away, his humility, his great resolve, his vision and his determination to accomplish the very best for the Nation, ever a pride. It was my greatest honour to have had an opportunity and privilege to work together towards common humanitarian causes. A very sad day. My prayers”.
Ratan Tata and Big B worked together on the film ‘Aetbaar’ which remains the only film venture of Ratan Tata. In 2004, Ratan Tata made his foray into filmmaking, as a financier. The film also starred John Abraham, and Bipasha Basu. The film, an adaptation of the 1996 Hollywood thriller ‘Fear’, was produced under the banner of Tata BSS. The film explored the themes of obsession and familial relationships, exploring the dark side of romantic fixation.
