Big B admires kids who choose family profession

TIL Desk Bollywood/ Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he admires children who follow professions which are traditional in their families. The “Piku” star launched Ustad Amjad Ali Khan’s sons album – ‘Journey- Rabab to Sarod’ – by Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash, here last evening.

“It’s very rare for the heads of family to follow their tradition into the next generation and I really want to compliment you for continuing this tradition in your family… Unfortunately with me it didn’t happen because when I was young somebody asked my mother, ‘so is your son going to be another poet’?

“She said, ‘one poet in the family is enough’. So I didn’t follow that. But thank you so much Amjad Ali Khan Saab for building these two into wonderful masters themselves and I wish them all the very best,” he said.
