Amitabh Bachchan said that it was time to go to work. He authored the piece on his way home from work at night. He added that he fell asleep while drafting the message, so it remained incomplete. 

Big B said, "Arre bhai sahab, humko kaam par jaane ka samay aagaya hai… gajab baat karte ho yaar! Aur raat ko jab 2 baje yahan se chhutti milti hai, toh ghar pahuchte-pahuchte 1-2 baj jaate hain. Woh likhte-likhte humko neend aa gayi, toh woh wahin tak reh gaya… Jaane ka waqt aur hum so gaye!"

On the professional front, Amitabh Bachchan's next project will be Kalki 2898 AD Part 2. He will once again share screen space with Dipika Kakar and Prabhas.
