Later that night, Amitabh blogged about his thanks and thoughts on the Sunday Darshan. He wrote:
“But the Sunday meet at the gate was as always awesome. the numbers increase I think and the love even more. I am so blessed.”
He also reflected on changing times, noting how technology has influenced fan interactions:
“I do notice, though that the numbers are now in a lower magnitude, the enthusiasm is gone, and the screams of delight now are replaced by the mobile camera and that is now very evident; more so that it is a manifestation that time is passing by, and nothing stays forever.
Despite these developments, Amitabh still pays respect to this heritage, and frequently refers to it as a devotional act. The actor further added that he never failed to remove his shoes when seeing fans, showing respect and humbleness.
