There is a lesson to be had from the above incident on why there will never be another Amitabh Bachchan ever again. Many attempts to get the actor failed and Dibakar finally had to use a double. That was it."Ĭut to many decades later when Dibakar Banenerjee needed Ranbir Kapoor to appear as himself in "Bombay Talkies". "Won't accept any remuneration means won't accept anything. I later asked him why he was so reluctant to accept the gift from the grateful director and he had replied. Such is the greatness and generosity of this mega-star.
Finally, I got a call from the frantic director asking me to request the icon to accept the gift. No amount of coaxing and cajoling could convince him otherwise. We have this small token of appreciation and gratitude," the director mumbled.īut Bachchan refused to take the gift (an expensive pen). "Sir, you have been generous and refused to accept any money. He took pictures with the awestruck crew and was about to leave when the nervous director came forward with a gift. Bachchan arrived at the exact time and shot the scene. On the appointed day, the crew of "Amrithadhare" landed in Mumbai to shoot the required sequence. Since they had heard of my closeness to him, they made this one last attempt.Ĭonsidering the urgency of the situation, this was the only time I asked Bachchan for a favour. The director Nagathihalli Chandrashekhar didn't know how to approach the big B, because the film couldn't be made without Bachchan's appearance (unless they managed with a duplicate) for the crucial scene in which the dying girl finally meets Bachchan. Back then she was a very polite, guileless, wannabe actress who played the role of a terminally ill woman whose dying wish was to meet Amitabh Bachchan. The film starred Ramya a.k.a Divya Spandana who is now a spokesperson for Rahul Gandhi. This was special, because I was instrumental in getting him to do this role.
Balki's "English Vinglish", Bachchan had appeared as himself, as too in Basu Chatterjee's "Piya Ka Ghar" (which starred Bachchan's superstar wife Jaya) and in Dulal Guha's "Dost".īut to me Bachchan's most memorable guest appearances as himself was in the Kannada film "Amrithadhare". In the Madhavan starrer "Ramji Londonwale" and in R. Bachchan has appeared in many films for fleeting appearances out of goodwill. There was no question of any monetary transaction. So when Ajay requested the senior Bachchan to make a special appearance in his production "Ela Helicopter", the film starring Ajay's wife Kajol, the veteran actor readily agreed. The friendship continues with the next generation, with Ajay and Abhishek Bachhan sharing very warm vibes. Ajay's father, the famed stunt co-ordinator Veeru Devgan, is a friend of Bachchan.
Amitabh Bachchan shares a very special rapport with Ajay Devgn.
