Amitabh Bachchan doesn't agree with West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who tweeted on Monday that he should have been honoured with the Bharat Ratna instead of the Padma Vibhushan, the country's second-highest civilian award. The 72-year-old actor, who was also awarded the Padma Shri in 1984 and the Padma Bhushan in 2001, expressed his views on Twitter: "@MamataOfficial Mamata di... I am not deserving of such recognition... Most humbled and honoured by what the Nation has given me..!!". Banerjee had tweeted: "Amitabh Bachchan is a legend in his lifetime. Padma Vibhushan is not enough. Somebody of his stature deserves a Bharat Ratna".
