  • Stop comparing sports negatively: Big B
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has congratulated the Indian Kabaddi team over their 74-20 win against Argentina in the Kabaddi World Cup.
 
He says people should be proud of the countrys victory and should stop this "disgusting" habit of comparing sports negatively.
 
"Huge congratulations India. Some comments saying score would be reverse in football. Stop putting India down! Be proud of our country's win and stop this disgusting habit of always comparing negatively about our nation," Amitabh posted on Twitter on Sunday.
 
"Score would be three times the combined score of Kabaddi in favour of India, in cricket! Say this. Be proud of India. Proud to be an Indian," added the 74-year-old, whose son Abhishek Bachchan owns Jaipur Pink Panthers team in the Star Sports Pro-Kabaddi League.
 
In the ongoing Kabaddi World Cup, India are second in group B with 16 points from three games.
