Big B, 72, posted on his
blog that he would embark on the mission 'someday.'
"I languish in lethargy these days, in the seeking of aloofness and the wealth and admiration of each letter written by my dear and loved Father, of lamentation at his absence to teach educate and to explain his words in the context of his living.
There is a desire to resign from life itself, to dedicate whatever is left in the reading and writing to the rest of the world what his writing meant ," wrote the actor.
Harivanshrai Bachchan, who died in 2003, is credited with works like
Madhushala and
Agneepath.
Big B, who has often been heard reciting his father's poetry, has called him a 'unique genius' on several occasions.
