Megastar Amitabh Bachchan indirectly took a dig at author Shobha De while congratulating P V Sindhu on winning the women's badminton singles semi-finals at Olympics in Rio.
De had mocked Indian athletes, saying their aim was only to click selfies and return without any medal from the sporting gala. The author was criticised and trolled for her comments.
Bachchan, 73, congratulated Sindhu, saying when she comes back he would like to click a selfie with her.
