The concept of a birthday cake confuses me, says Amitabh Bachchan!

Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, who turned 75 a couple of days back, intermingled with the media at his residence and also spoke about how the concept of a birthday cake confuses him.

Speaking to the media, the Amitabh Bachchan told, ''As a child, I remember cutting a cake and being fed by the elders on my birthday but I don't do that anymore. Actually, I don't understand this concept of why a cake is arranged with a burning candle that has to be blown out and then cut with a knife. Nowadays, there is also this new trend of mashing the cake on the face of the person, who celebrates his/her birthday and I don't really understand such concepts.''

Bachchan will be next seen in Ram Gopal Varma's Sarkar 3.
