Bollywood: Amitabh Bachchan wears sunglasses worth 2.7 lakh

Amitabh Bachchan “Shehenshah of Bollywood” will be seen wearing Rs. 2.7 lakh worth Rayban sunglasses in his forthcoming film ‘Zamaanat’. The film is due to be released next week.

Meanwhile the Income Tax (IT) department on Friday denied that it had served any notice to the Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan asking him to explain the purchase of the Ray Ban glasses.

A TV channel had earlier reported that the IT department had issued a notice to Amitabh on the basis of his purchasing the sunglass. The channel also said that Big B later gifted the sunglass to filmmaker S Ramnathan on completion of the film.

“We clarify that the Income Tax department, Mumbai has not issued any notice to Amitabh Bachchan with reference to media reports that the actor had purchased sun glasses in New York valued at Rs.270,000,” H Tulsyan, Chief Commissioner Income Tax Mumbai, told IANS.

“There were several misleading reports in certain sections of the media. The media has been reporting that Income Tax department Mumbai has issued a notice asking the actor to explain the purchase of sun glasses in New York. We have not issued any such notice to Amitabh Bachchan,” he added.

The sunglasses have bifocal lens and also serve as regular spectacles. Moreover, Italian frames by designer Roberto Cavalli are used; prices start at Rs 40,000.
