Actor Amitabh Bachchan has shared a few thoughts on social media as Bollywood tries to cope with more than one death in a short span of time. The 77 year old took to Twitter to write, “shshss .. when the noise all about thee is quiet .. savour it, allow it to breathe , give it the space in the room ..”

He also shared a lesson from his late father and renowned poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan. He wrote in Hindi, “Good if it is as per your will; Better if it is not as per your will'. I didn't understand when Babuji taught me this at a distracted turn of my life. How can it be better if it is not as per our will! When he explained, I understood. 'If it is not as per your will, then it is God's will, and God will always want your good, so it's better.”

The veteran actor, who is an active member of social media, and the internet, went on to talk about trolls on his blog. He wrote, “I shall not have the privilege of an answer .. for answers are an unclassified lot .. eager to be in the open declaring that they be noticed , talked about be given the dominance they so desperately need because they are complexed by the absence of the values norms of the World about them.”

Bachchan Sr. Had recently condoled the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. He wrote, “Why .. Why .. Why .. Why .. Sushant Singh Rajput .. why do you end your life .. your brilliant talent .. your brilliant mind .. laid to rest , without asking , seeking .. why .. .. his work was sheer brilliance .. and his mind even more.”
