Amitabh Bachchan, the brand ambassador for Gujarat, has received a commendation from Chief Minister Anandiben Patel for his efforts to further tourism in the state.
The 72-year-old took to Twitter and his blog to share a photograph of him receiving a memento and a shawl from Patel.
“The Gujarat Chief Minister, Anandiben Patel, fills me with commendations for my contribution towards Gujarat Tourism,” he posted on his blog.
“Her daughter and son-in-law introduce me to some of the path-breaking work that they are involved in, socially ... and my readiness in not just acknowledging it but volunteering to become a part of this many faceted work towards humanity,” he added.
Bachchan can be seen endorsing the state through the ‘Khusboo Gujarat Ki’ television campaign.
