What Amitabh said
Amitabh shared a quote from his father’s (Harivansh Rai Bachchan) work that said the days move on quite fast. He then shared, “A few thoughts from Babuji’s works and the days pass by, it was the previous month just now and the next is upon us .. coercing us to be reminded how time passes away so soon. Mobility is the key. Keep the body mobile, keep the mind mobile and the strength of mobility shall be evident, suddenly, rather than sitting around without any reason.”
