Shweta Bachchan Nanda pens her experience of coping with an empty nest.

Amitabh Bachchan’s Grand Diwali Party!

Amitabh Bachchan‘s Diwali bash is considered the grandest of all because the celebration goes for long hours and all the stars from the industry are seen united under one roof. Earlier, the Pink star used to host Holi parties as well but since a couple of years, it has been replaced by the Diwali party. The Bachchan family who hosts the Diwali bash every year supports an Eco-friendly Diwali where the menu is traditional with Indian sweets.

Amitabh Bachchan’s Diwali began with pink lights recently. Jalsa was turned into pink. Before you get confused, we tell you Big B’s residence was turned pink in order to announce the world television premiere of his critically acclaimed film Pink which was premiered on Star Gold on October 23, 2016. Bachchan‘s Diwali bash began this year with pink lights already.

Amitabh Bachchan‘s daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has made Diwali much more special as she is treating her fans with her upcoming release Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
