R Madhavan described the evening: 'The most wonderful evening yesterday.@SrBachchan Ji Birthday Bash.Whatever the Bachchans do HAS to be classy and this was right up there.  Met da industry after the longest time but the highlight was to realise that I was part of the industry as the same time as Mr Bachchan. Calling him Legendary would undermine his value.What a man, what an actor, what a gentleman. Most importantly. WHAT A SON. His Love ,affection respect and reverence for his parents is what epitomises the highest level of Indian values and traditions. Seeing a 70 year old man dance like a teenager to poetry written by his father was poetry in motion itself. Its what folklore and legends are born of.If I can get half that love and respect from my son I would have lived a life of meaning n success.'
