Recently, MNS chief Raj Thackeray sent across a sketch as a belated birthday gift to Amitabh Bachchan. The sketch by Raj was delivered at Bachchan&rsquo;s residence Jalsa by his son Amit Thackeray. Amit received a return gift from Big B in the form of a fluorescent green watch that the mega star has sported on celluloid for many films.
According to a report in <a href="http://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/mumbai/cover-story/Amitabh-Bachchans-green-watch-thank-you-to-Raj-Thackerays-birthday-sketch/articleshow/54890266.cms" target="_blank">Mumbai Mirror</a>, Amit&rsquo;s friends say he hasn&rsquo;t removed the watch from the moment he received it. Amey Khopkar, who heads MNS&rsquo; film wing, and who had accompanied Amit Thackeray to Jalsa, told Mirror, &ldquo;We spent around two hours with Mr Bachchan, who said that a sketch by Raj Thackeray himself was extremely dear and valuable to him. He showed us his library, and we were surprised to find a number of Raj saheb&rsquo;s sketches and caricatures in his collection.&rdquo;
Speaking about the return gift, Khopkar told the paper. &ldquo;He (Amit) had read that Mr Bachchan had a huge collection of watches. Mr Bachchan said that he had bought the green watch from London many years ago, but didn&rsquo;t say much about it. All of us were stunned when the watch was delivered to Raj saheb&rsquo;s house Krishna Kunj the very next day as return gift. Mr Bachchan is indeed class apart,&rdquo; Khopkar told <a href="http://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/mumbai/cover-story/Amitabh-Bachchans-green-watch-thank-you-to-Raj-Thackerays-birthday-sketch/articleshow/54890266.cms" target="_blank">Mirror</a>.
According to the report, Bachchan inquired if Amit was helping his father Raj in politics. &ldquo;I attend rallies and help out whenever I get a chance, but I&rsquo;m not into fulltime politics,&rdquo; Amit is said to have told Bachchan.
Bachchan turned 74 on October 11 this year.
