Amitabh Bachchan falls, Cascading waterfall near Lachung, Sikkim, India
The water streams down multiple tiers along steep rock formations, situated on the path connecting Chungthang to Yumthang Valley in North Sikkim.
The waterfall, previously known as Bhewma Falls, received its current name due to its height matching the stature of Indian cinema actor Amitabh Bachchan.
The waterfall stands as a representation of Sikkim's practice of connecting natural landmarks to notable public figures from Indian entertainment.
Visitors need to travel 13 kilometers from Lachung village by taxi, requiring one hour of drive time through mountain roads.
In 2023, actor Amitabh Bachchan expressed surprise on social media upon learning about this waterfall bearing his name in Sikkim.
