Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan took to Instagram to share the news that the city of Wroclaw in Poland has named a square after his late father and celebrated poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan. It is indeed a proud moment for the Bachchan family and for India as well.

He passed away in 2003.

Amitabh posted the picture of a signboard of the square named after Harivansh Rai Bachchan and wrote-

"The City Council of the City of Wroclaw, Poland has decided to name a Square after my Father… there could not have been a more apt blessing on Dushhera than this .. a moment of extreme pride for the family , for the Indian community in Wroclaw .. and India… JAI HIND."
