Sometimes the digs sort of backfired as well but that definitely didn’t put the Shehenshah down! The actor continues to reign on Twitter with over 2K tweets. One of the tweets that caught our fancy recently was the one he shared with ace cricketer Chris Gayle! Okay firstly, didn’t know Amitabh and Chris were buddies and secondly hurray on that!

Big B invited Chris over to his place for some wine and dine! But that’s not all. The duo shared some amazing time as they spoke about things, including the semi finals match between India and West Indies that is to be held on Thursday. Chris even shared a picture with him on his Instagram and captioned, “What an absolutely legend, @amitabhbachchan Thanks for the invite and hospitality at your home, thanks also for the books. The boss wants me to score a 100 and India win but I would take the win rather than the 100. #Love&Respect to a great man, Mr Bachchan. The wine & food” Aww! However, Big B too took to his Twitter account to share his picture with Gayle as he tweeted, “T 2189 – Did not know he was a fan, was my politest best, hoping he would repay the compliment on Thursday IndvWI”

Wow! The Piku actor sure is on a roll, don’t you think? How excited are you for the semi finals BollywoodLifers? tell us in the comments section below!

Washington, May 18: Joining hands with the European Commission, actor Leonardo DiCaprio launched the Virunga Fund with seed money of USD 2 million to support Africa's Virunga National Park.

Since Virunga has lost a significant amount of revenue due to COVID shutdown post-March, the fund will be used to support the national park and the communities around, reported Variety.

The fund is aimed at disease prevention efforts, protection of mountain gorilla, and other species.

"I had the great honor of meeting and supporting Virunga's courageous team in their fight against illegal oil drilling in 2013," Variety quoted DiCaprio as saying.

"Virunga urgently needs funds to protect the endangered mountain gorilla population, to provide support to the rangers and the families of rangers who have fallen in the line of duty, and to help deliver essential disease prevention efforts. It's critical that we rally together during this time of incredible crisis," he added.

The 'Titanic' actor had earlier produced a Netflix documentary film 'Virunga' which is based on the national park.
