What Amitabh said

Amitabh Bachchan calls the Mumbai coastal road a marvel

On Tuesday, Amitabh took to his X handle and shared a video of his car driving through the tunnel. Amitabh recorded the video, sitting in the backseat, as his chauffeur drove the luxury car with a sunroof. Amitabh wrote in the caption, “Went first time in the TUNNEL - Enter before Haji Ali and out Half way to Marine Drive .. a Marvel!”

Eknath said the coastal road was built using advanced technology and it can be called an "engineering marvel". Its second phase will be opened for traffic in May. The 53 km-long coastal road will be connected to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link and there onwards, it will be extended up to Dahisar.

The coastal road has been named after Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj (son of Maratha warrior king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj) and was opened on the occasion of his death anniversary. A statue of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj will be erected in Worli, next to the coastal road.

Meanwhile, Amitabh is gearing up for the release of his films Kalki 2898 AD, Section 84, and Vettaiyan. While the first film is a sci-fi epic directed by Nag Ashwin, which also stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani, Section 84 is a courtroom drama directed by Ribhu Dasgupta. Vettaiyan will mark his Tamil debut and reunion with Rajinikanth 33 years after Hum.
