Amitabh Bachchan walks down memory lane as he drops UNSEEN pics from 1954 Scout Days: ‘Those learnings still being practised’

As a dedicated follower of Big B’s journey through the years, it’s always a treat to witness his reminiscent moments unfold. The man, who once donned a Scout uniform in Allahabad back in 1954, still carries the essence of those days with him. His recent Instagram post transported us all back to those early days at BHS, where he learned valuable lessons that still resonate today.


Amitabh Bachchan, a renowned movie star, is currently basking in the glory of his latest film release, Kalki 2898 AD, which has been a critical and commercial success. Bachchan’s exceptional portrayal in this innovative role has earned him accolades, and the movie has proven to be a box office sensation. Despite his busy schedule, Big B consistently finds time to share rare photos from his personal collection with his admirers. On August 1, 2024, in honor of Scout Day, the actor reminisced about the past and shared a photo from his Scouting days in Allahabad back in 1954.

On Instagram and his Tumblr blog, Big B reminisced about his Scout experiences from 1954 by posting photographs. The images show a young Amitabh Bachchan in his Scout uniform, barely resembling his present self. In one of the pictures, he is captured standing with his fellow students and teacher for a group snapshot.

As a former Boy Scout myself, I can attest to the enduring impact that those “good ol’ days” of Scouting had on my own life. The special scarves, badges, and unique salute were more than just symbols; they represented a sense of belonging, a commitment to learning, and a dedication to service. Baden-Powell, the Founder, embodied these values and instilled them in generations of Scouts. To this day, many of the lessons I learned during my time as a Boy Scout continue to guide me in my personal and professional life. The principles of honesty, respect, and self-reliance are timeless and universal, making the Scouting experience an invaluable part of my own journey.

“Those were the unforgettable times at BHS, Allahabad. Scouting memories with the troop stand out, particularly the visit from the head of the Scouts from Australia. He recalled the number of autographs he signed, truly remarkable! It’s almost unbelievable that I struggle to recognize myself in those group photos, yet I can still recall most of my fellow scouts. Isn’t it odd how we vividly remember our early days, while recent gatherings seem to fade?” – Big B shared in his blog.

On June 9th, the actor from Piku shared an Instagram photo showing him in winter clothing even though it was hot outside, around 45 degrees. He’s smiling and giving a thumbs-up to the camera in the picture. His caption read, “Working during summer heat… wearing snow gear…!!! Work is my prayer.” (prayer emoji)

Moreover, on his account (previously Twitter), Big B shared a backstage photo with his son Abhishek Bachchan from an upcoming project. In Hindi, he captioned it, “Father and son working under one roof; soon, this talented pair will showcase their work on stage.”

In terms of his professional life, Amitabh Bachchan will soon team up with Rajinikanth in the highly anticipated movie titled Vettaiyan. This film is penned and helmed by T.J. Gnanavel, while production duties are handled by A. Subaskaran under the Lyca Productions label.
