Amitabh
Bachchan
has
finally
made
a
new
Gujarati
connection.
Yes!
He
is
now
the
brand
ambassador
of
the
state
of
Gujarat.
He
has
lent
his
voice
and
his
face
for
the
promotion
and
development
of
a
state
that
prides
itself
in
having
one
of
the
finest
infrastructures
and
speedy
development
in
almost
all
the
sectors.
This
was
the
essential
reason
why
Mr.
Bachchan
even
suggested
being
associated
with
the
state.
During
a
special
screening
of
his
film
Paa
that
took
place
in
Gujarat
for
some
of
the
senior
dignitaries,
Big
B
was
so
impressed
with
Mr.
Modi
and
Gujarat
that
he
made
an
offer
to
do
whatever
he
could
to
further
the
cause
of
tourism
and
development
in
the
state.
Taking
the
offer
on
a
serious
note,
Mr.
Modi
sent
a
letter
to
Big
B
offering
him
the
post
of
Gujarat's
brand
ambassador
which
he
accepted
in
all
humility.
So,
be
ready
to
see
the
senior
Bachchan
promoting
tourism
in
Gujarat.
