I think it is the respect which the fans gives to Amitabh because of the good work he has done and doing from many years.

There have been temples built for other actors and actresses so why not Amitabh , even i it was only his chappals that were being worshiped. Honestly Indians are crazy, to go to such length, it is only those who have no better work and largely have nothing else to occupy their minds who do such things.

No he is not the first person, but some people become mad on some person though the person is normal one. Ok let us talk about our families. For example take the issue of my family. My dad has a younger sister.My grany and grand fa are no more. So we only looking after her. My dad has 4 siblings. one elder sister, 2 younger brothers and 1 younger sister. The younger sister is unmarried. So no one are there to look after her. Remaining 2 brothers won't even try to know about her. But she always try to get the things from us and give to her other brother though he won't even think after her.

this is what called madness. she even steal things from us and give to other brother.
