Megastar Amitabh Bachchan made a cancer patient's dream come true by celebrating her birthday.
The 73-year-old "Wazir" star met young girl Hardika, who wished to cut her birthday cake in presence of her favourite actor.
Bachchan posted pictures of Hardika's birthday celebration on his blog and shared the details of his meeting with her.
"Hardika a young girl suffers from cancer and has a wish to meet me. I comply and we meet. She is pretty and gentle and moves with an oxygen container. It is most difficult to confront the innocence of pain and lost hope.
"But a brave front, a desire fulfilled a wish completed and a smile for a special day in her life - her birthday makes that moment eternal. I wish her speedy recovery," the actor wrote.
Bachchan also gifted the girl a bouquet of flowers.
