Once, Amitabh had recalled a time when his life was cloaked by the mist of sorrow and failure, and nothing was going according to his plan, and his father had consoled him by making him believe in plans of god for him. Describing the conversation, Amitabh Bachchan had posted an oil-painted sketch of himself on his Twitter handle and had written:

"'Man ka ho toh accha, man ka na ho toh zyada accha.' Babu ji ne jab mujhe mere jeevan ke ek vichlit mod par ye sikhaya, toh samajh me nahi aaya. Jo man ka na ho wo zyada accha kaise ho sakta hai. Fir jab unhone smajhaya toh samajh gaya. 'Agar tumhare man ka nahi ho raha hai, toh wo ishwar ke man ka ho raha hai, aur ishwar humesha tumhara accha hi chahega, is liye zyada accha!"
