“A promise made done… the farmers from Bihar that had outstanding loans picked 2100 of them and paid off their amount with an OTS (One Time Settlement) with the Bank called some of them over to Janak and personally gave it to them at the hands of Shweta and Abhishek,” Amitabh Bachchan wrote on his blog.

Earlier, the 76-year-old actor had written that “there is the gift of those that suffer from the inability to pay back the loans. They be now from the state of Bihar”.
