Lucknow, October 11

The Uttar Pradesh Police on Tuesday greeted megastar Amitabh Bachchan on his 80th birthday.

Taking to Twitter, the state police department shared a video—a compilation of clips from films in which Bachchan portrayed the role of a cop.

“Wishing you a Happy Birthday ‘inspector Vijay’. You in reel life and we in real life bring glory to ‘Khaki’ by walking on the ‘Agneepath’ of duty and truthfulness standing firmly against crime like a ‘Deewar’,” the UP Police tweeted in Hindi in a play of words.

Bachchan is one of the busiest actors of Indian cinema and he continues to spearhead the highly successful quiz show “Kaun Banega Crorepati”, which is currently in its 14th season.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
