Amitabh Bachchan may have millions of followers, but that has not kept him away from online trolling. The veteran actor recently shared how social media users have commented on his age and questioned his posts. During an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18 , Big B spoke about how these reactions changed his approach to social media and why he no longer writes as much as he used to. The conversation began when a contestant named Vinamra asked Amitabh Bachchan how he deals with criticism online. He pointed out that people from his age group often find it difficult to handle negative comments and wanted to know how the actor manages such reactions. Big B explained that when he first started using social media, he saw it as a space where he could express his thoughts freely.

A man who kept 19 people including 17 children hostage in a Mumbai studio on Thursday was shot dead by a policeman just as the gunman was about to aim at one of the hostages, sources said.
The accused, Rohit Arya, invited all of them to the studio under the pretext of an audition for a web series before he announced his intention. He was armed with an airgun. The hostage crisis that unfolded in Powai lasted three hours.
Many praised Assistant Sub-Inspector Amol Waghmare, whose brave and timely action ended the hostage situation involving children between 10 and 12 years old. He has been called the "Hero of Powai" for risking his life to save the children.
The police in Powai received information at 1.45 pm that a man had lured children to a studio and held them hostage. Arya, armed with an airgun that can be lethal if shot at soft tissue from close range, had installed sensors on the studio's windows to detect anyone who may try to launch a rescue.
The police managed to enter the building from the backdoor. Once inside, they checked the place for the best possible entry, and quietly made their way to the washroom connected to the studio, sources told NDTV.
Arya tried to aim at one of the hostages in a bid to pull the trigger. Then Amol Waghmare instinctively opened fire at Arya to save the children, sources said. Arya collapsed after he took a bullet to the chest. He died later.
Apart from the airgun, the police also recovered some chemicals from the studio, but gave no more details. All the 19 people including two adults were rescued safely.
In a video released before the police action, Arya explained his motive, claiming he made a plan to hold the children hostage instead of dying by suicide.
The police said they tried to negotiate with him, but as the talks made no headway, the police team decided to make a move.
