Happy Birthday Urmila Matondkar: The actress reveals Amitabh Bachchan always wishes her on her birthday

As Urmila Matondkar gets a year older today, she gave an interview to a leading daily, revealing the name of one such legendary actor who never fails to wish her on her special day. The person is none other than Amitabh Bachchan. "Mr. Bachchan not only wishes me on my birthday every year, but is, in fact, always the first person to do so. Whether I am in India or abroad, he never fails to send across a warm message on the day. Hats off to him, it’s amazing to receive this love and respect from someone who is a legend himself.” She shares, “Last year, I got pulled up by him. He asked me, ‘Oh your number is the same? Because you didn’t reply to my message’. It took me by surprise as who would not reply to Mr. Bachchan? (laughs!) So, you see, once in a while he pulls a fast one on you," she said.

Talking about her birthday plans this year, the Rangeela actress shared, "My parents have always ensured that my elder brother and I did some charity work on our birthdays. And I plan to continue that. We have never cut cakes or hosted lavish parties. When I became an actress, being the private person that I am, I would shy away from cutting cakes on sets.” She also plans to visit an orphanage and an old age home today." Urmila has turned 47 today and she says she's really blessed to have got this life and hopes for a better future ahead.
