From Amitabh Bachchan to Chris Hemsworth, Delhi's 'Autograph man' has over 5000 autographs

All the 80s and 90s kids would probably know the value that autographs held back in time when there were no smartphones to instantly click a selfie or a picture with your favourite celebrity. In today's day and age of technological reforms, autographs do not hold the prominence they did back in the days. However, it is certainly not the case with the Delhi-based Amarjeet Singh who is also popularly known as the 'Autograph Man'  because the lad has collected over 5000 autographs of celebrities over the span of six years.
