Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary “Shahenshah” of Bollywood, recently grabbed headlines with a cryptic display of anger on social media. Fans and media alike are buzzing with speculation about who or what triggered the iconic actor’s rare public outburst.

Was it related to his wife Jaya Bachchan, daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, or the ever-enigmatic Rekha? The mystery has left everyone guessing.

On December 1, Amitabh took to his social media handle to share two cryptic tweets.

In the first, he wrote, “Work was done, then more work came along. Some words needed to be heard by those who have lost their sense of shame.”

This was followed by another tweet with a red angry face emoji and a single word: “Silence.”

These posts immediately went viral, sparking a frenzy of interpretations and debates among fans and netizens.

The timing of Big B’s tweets has led many to link them to recent events. Some speculate that the tweets were a subtle jab at comedian Kapil Sharma, who recently mimicked Amitabh on his comedy show.

Adding fuel to the fire, actress Rekha, who was a guest on the show, reportedly made light-hearted comments about the mimicry, which some believe might have irked the megastar.

Others, however, think the tweets could be aimed at the relentless rumors surrounding Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan’s alleged marital issues.

Fans believe Amitabh wants to put an end to the constant media scrutiny and protect his family’s privacy.

Interestingly, netizens have dragged various names into the discussion. Some suggested the tweets were directed at Rekha, while others joked that Amitabh should direct his anger toward his outspoken wife, Jaya Bachchan.

One user humorously commented, “If you have the courage, try silencing Jaya Ji!” Another shared a meme featuring Rekha offering flowers to Amitabh, with a caption suggesting she was calming him down.

A few fans even linked the tweets to Aishwarya and Abhishek, implying that the actor wants to put a lid on the separation rumors.

This isn’t the first time Amitabh Bachchan has expressed frustration online. In a recent blog post, he indirectly addressed the baseless speculations surrounding his family.

Without naming anyone, he urged people to verify facts before spreading rumors. “What is being written about my family is nothing but gossip,” he wrote, emphasizing the importance of respecting privacy.

While the exact target of Amitabh’s anger remains unclear, his rare public display of frustration has certainly caught everyone’s attention.

Whether it’s a subtle response to Rekha’s remarks, a reaction to family-related gossip, or something entirely different, one thing is certain: the “Angry Young Man” of Bollywood can still make waves with just a few words.
