In an old interview, Amitabh Bachchan revealed how his property will be divided after his death.

Superstar Amitabh Bachchan who has a huge fan following all over the world often talks about his family. In 2011, the actor revealed how his assets will be shared after his death. He also mentioned that he and Jaya had decided this years ago.

Big B while talking about equality shared that all her assets will be divided equally after his death. He stated, during an interview with Reddiff, he said, "I had decided on one thing: that I would not differentiate between them. When I die, whatever little I have will be equally divided between my daughter and my son — there is no differentiation. Jaya and I decided on that long time back. Everybody says that the girl is paraya dhan, she goes to her husband’s house, but in my eyes she is our daughter, she has the same rights Abhishek has."

Last year, Amitabh gifted Jalsa to Shweta Bachchan Nanda. During the same interview, he stated, "I had decided much before Abhishek was born that if I had a son he would be my friend rather than a son, and the day he started wearing my shoes, he became my friend. So now I treat him as a friend. I very rarely look upon him as a son. I am concerned about him as a father, I would look after him as a father, I would advice him as a father, but when I talk to him, we talk as friends."

Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan's granddaughter and Shweta Bachchan and Nikhil Nanda’s daughter Navya Naveli Nanda is all set to pursue BPGP programme at the prestigious IIM Ahmedabad, India's premier business school.
