The euphoria around India's World Cup victory has still not sunk in, says Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who believes that there is no greater unifier in the country than cinema and cricket.

"A prominent author and thinker on a public platform admitted that sport and film were the two most fertile ingredients in bringing a nation together. Nothing could be truer. They always were and shall always be, a unifier," Bachchan posted on his blog on Tuesday.

The 68-year-old, who sent congratulatory messages to Sachin Tendulkar and Harbhajan Singh, hit the streets with his son, Abhishek and daughter-in-law Aishwarya, in their car, to celebrate India's win with Mumbaikars on Saturday night.

"The joyous mood retains its vigour. God bless them, their effort and the effort of the entire team. And God bless India. Eleven Indians have invigorated an entire nation of almost a billion and half, and perhaps in other parts of the world too with their dedication," he added.
