Megastar Amitabh Bachchan was honoured with the Indian film personality of the year award at the 48th edition of IFFI. The actor expressed his happiness on social media and thanked everyone for their kind words. The award was presented to him by Akshay Kumar, who not only gave a heart-warming speech but also touched Big B’s feet.
