I think it is wonderful."<br /><br />"Jo nakaratmak baatein karte hai main unka swagat karta hoon.

I never block or delete these people," the 73-year-old actor said.<br /><br />The "Piku" star says he tries to tell people not to use abusive language.<br /><br />"But those who abusive language I tell them there was no need to use this kind of language. If they improve, good, if not, then (I do) not listen to it. Ek maa kala tika lagati hai bache pe nazar utarne ke liye main inn sabko apna nazar batu samajhta hoon," he said.<br /><br />Prime Minister Narendra Modi and most of his ministerial colleague are expected to attend the event at India Gate tomorrow, where Amitabh will also host a small segment of the programme, to mark the government's second anniversary.<br /><br />The government is organising the event-- 'Zara Muskura Do' (Smile Please)-- which will have several performances and programmes highlighting its "achievements".<br /><br />The show will be beamed across the country by Doordarshan. <br /></p>
