On March 23, 2022, Amitabh Bachchan had also penned a blog, expressing his emotions for Abhishek Bachchan. He had revealed about feeling proud to be recognised as Abhishek's father. He also had talked about inheritance and had quoted some lines from his father, Harivansh Rai Bachchan's poem, Vasiyatnama. He had written:
"Such pride in the progeny, or as they call it humorously --my progress report! The greatest joy for a Father is to witness the achievements of his children .. to savour the glory they bring to his name .. to be in the recognition as the Father of Abhishek, rather the other way round .. and Abhishek sums it up for me .. I have given this example often through one of babuji’s poem on the ‘vasiyatnama’ the WILL of inheritance, that is written for the progeny on the passing of the elder ..one of the most prominent lines of the verse are: my sons will not be my inheritors my heir apparent, my successors, just because they are my sons; instead they that are my successors, my uttaradhikari’s, shall be my sons."
