New Delhi, Oct 09: Indian cinema's biggest icon, Amitabh Bachchan, will spend a day at Tirupati on Thursday before going to Mumbai to celebrate his 60th birthday. He will be accompanied by his wife Jaya, children Shweta and Abhishek, son-in-law Nikhil Nanda, and friends Anil Ambani and Amar Singh.

Come Friday, all roads will lead to the JW Marriott Hotel in Mumbai, where a party has been arranged on the occasion of his birthday.
The invitation card for the celebrations has been printed by Jaya Bachchan, Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh and his wife, Pankaja.

For Amar Singh, his "elder brother’s" birthday is an opportunity to recollect memories. "I still remember how, after Shweta’s bidai, Amitji and I sat holding hands for eight hours." With another wedding due in the family, these are happy times for the Bachchans. "The day Abhishek formally proposed to Karisma and she accepted, she became our bahu," says Singh.
