Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 has kept fans hooked with Amitabh Bachchan’s lively and spontaneous persona. In the latest episode, Big B let fans in on a fun secret, revealing a clever piece of advice he received from the iconic Shashi Kapoor. During a candid chat with a contestant, Amitabh Bachchan shared a trick he learned from his legendary co-star to dodge those awkward moments when you can’t remember someone’s name at a gathering. The veteran actor’s storytelling had everyone captivated, as he spilled the beans on this handy social hack.
Amitabh Bachchan said, “Kahi baar ayesa hota hain, kahi hum jaate hain, koi aa jata hain milne ke liye. Aur ayese muskurate huwe milega ki lagega hum uske jaan pehchan ke hain, aur humko yaad bhi nahi hota aur hum bhul gaye honge. (Sometimes it happens that we meet someone whom we seem to know but can’t recollect their name).”
Narrating the trick adopted by Shashi Kapoor to handle such a situation, Amitabh Bachchan added, “Shashi Kapoor ji ke ye adaat bohot badhiya thi, humne unse seekha. Koi bhi aa jaye aur aapko lagey hum iska naam nahi jante hain, toh wo apna naam pehle bata denge, ‘Hello, I’m Shashi Kapoor.’ Toh jayse ye bolega, toh udhar se wo aapna naam bol dega. (Shashi Kapoor knew how to handle such a situation. He would introduce himself first, saying, ‘Hello, I’m Shashi Kapoor’. This would make the other person feel obliged to share their name).”
Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 premiered on August 12. The quiz-based reality show airs at 9 PM on Sony TV from Monday to Friday. Amitabh Bachchan has been associated with the realty show ever since it first aired in 2000, marking his debut in television. Since then, he has been hosting the same for all the season except season 3 wherein Shah Rukh Khan was roped in to replace him.
On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan last entertained his fans with his role in Kalki 2898 AD. Co-starring Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone and Prabhas, the film was a hit at the box-office. As for his next projects, the veteran star will be seen collaborating with Tamil megastar Rajinikanth in Vettaiyan.
