On Wednesday, Amitabh Bachchan shared an inspirational poem and credited his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan for it. However, it turns out, the poem was written by Prasoon Joshi.
A day after, the Bollywood actor tweeted to apologise for the same. “Babuji is not the author of the poem that was published yesterday. That was wrong. It is composed by poet Prasoon Joshi.
I apologize for this,” Amitabh wrote in Hindi on Twitter along with a screenshot of the poem.

T 3817 -‘अकेलेपन का बल पहचान शब्द कहाँ जो तुझको टोके हाथ कहाँ जो तुझको रोके राह वही है, दिशा वही है, तू करे जिधर प्रस्थान अकेलेपन का बल पहचान ।जब तू चाहे तब मुसकाए,जब चाहे तब अश्रु बहाए,राग वही तू जिसमें गाना चाहे अपना गान ।अकेलेपन का बल पहचान ।’~ hrb pic.twitter.com/GDIpfrpVtz
