New Delhi: Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who had shot for a popular song from 1983 film `Mahaan` at an iconic location in Kathmandu, is left shaken after fresh aftershocks of earthquake still continues to jolt Nepal and India.
The earthquake measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale, damaged historic sites, houses and buildings in Nepal on Saturday, killing over 3000 people so far.
The megastar took to Twitter to mourn the loss of lives and express the fear that has engulfed everyone post the continuous shakes that Nepal and North Indian states have experienced in the last three days.
`The tragedy of Nepal and North Indian states persists. More shakes experienced .. and fear begins to enter the framework ! Prayers`, he posted on Twitter.
Big B had shot for the famous song `Pyar Mei Dil Pe` with co-star Zeenat Aman at the Durbar Square, which is now nothing but a ruin following the massive earthquake.
"In the face of such disaster, we mourn with them that have been displaced or lost to the heavens. It is a most horrid site to see those buildings in absolute destruction... some of them of great heritage value," Bachchan posted on his blog late Saturday night.
"Our prayers go out for Nepal and all those other centres of the northern belt, who have felt the fury of the earthquake," the actor said.
On Twitter, he wrote: "O God... this is Nepal earthquake!!! I shot a song here for 'Mahaan' with Zeenat Aman .. pray all well."
