Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi has thanked megastar Amitabh Bachchan for his inspiring note to his son, Ayaan and called him the "original superhero".

Bachchan had sent a special letter for the 37-year-old actor's son, which Hashmi shared on Twitter.
"Thanks @SrBachchan for the note. Ayaan aspires to be Batman. And Batman aspires to be you. You are the original superhero!" he wrote.
Bachchan replied saying, "Really what a remarkable son .. god bless him and may he remain healthy ever..."
