Amitabh Bachchan says he tries to keep himself free during Diwali to spend time with family. The actor was addressing guests on his game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati, when he said: "I try to keep myself free during festivals so that I can celebrate them with my family, but sometimes, if I am out of India for shoots, I can't be with them." However, it is suggested that the Bachchan family will refrain from celebrations this year following the death of daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai's father Krishnaraj Rai.
