Now, Big B has given his support to the innovative attempt made by Mumbai Police to place a full stop on cyber attacks, with the help of dialogues from 'Sholay'.

To show his support, the 74-year-old-actor took to twitter and posted a collage of his photos and captioned the post as, "T 2439 -An initiative I support, @MumbaiPolice awareness campaign on traffic, cybercrime.based on my dialogues."

Mumbai Police also posted a snap from the movie to raise the awareness.

They captioned the picture, "Not the gun but awareness can be your biggest weapon against the online 'Gabbars' reel to real."

The image features Amitabh, Dharmendra and Hema Malini in a scene from 'Sholay'.

On the professional front, Amitabh Bachchan will be next seen in Vijay Krishna Acharya's 'Thugs of Hindostan' alongside Aamir Khan.

The 'PINK' star will also be seen in '102 not out,' with Rishi Kapoor, where he will play the role of a 102-year-old man, father to Rishi's character.
