Abhishek Bachchan has come back from the Cannes but returned to a very sad news. The man behind Amitabh Bachchan's costumes, Akbar Shahpurwala, passed away and the actor mourned his demise with a long, heartfelt note.

He wrote- "Returned home to very sad news. Akbar Shahpurwala a bonafide legend of the film world passed away. I knew him as Akki uncle. He made my father’s costumes and most of his suits from as far back as I can remember and many of my films too. He personally cut and stitched my first ever suit as a baby ( I still have it) to the tux I wore to Refugee’s premiere. If your costumes and suits were made by Kachins and then Gabana then you had arrived as a star."
