The Big Baap (Big B) of Bollywood will be turning 70 on October 11 and the Bachchans are planning to celebrate the occasion by having a gala time with at least 1000 guests and how! As per reports, Jaya Bachchan, who is in charge of the grand celebration, has planned a filmi birthday for dear hubby Amitabh. Keeping up with their status as Bollywood’s first family, Bachchan’s have planned a 1000-guest sit down dinner party at a posh five star hotel in Mumbai.

The celebration will be a star-studded affair with popular international artists to be flown in to perform at the ball. The entertainment supplement of a Delhi-based newspaper touted the gala as the mother of all celebrations! Now only time will tell if Big B’s party will set a benchmark as was done by film maker Karan Johar’s 40th birthday bash earlier this year, that had gone on to become the most talked about affair among the media, celebs and B-Towners!
