According to Abhishek Bachchan, he is a “better actor” than Amitabh Bachchan.
A forthcoming episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) 16 will feature a number of anecdotes from Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan. The guests on Amitabh’s reality game program will be Abhishek Bachchan and Shoojit Sircar. On Friday, Sony Entertainment Television posted a brand-new video to Instagram.
In the episode, Shoojit asked who was the better actor between the two. Abhishek promptly replied, “Main (Me).” Amitabh looked at his son, paused and then replied with a laugh, “Dekhiye apni tareef karna bohut hi mushkil hota hai (See, it’s very difficult to praise myself).” This left both Abhishek and Shoojit, as well as the audience, in splits.
Abhishek then said, “Off-camera jab pariwar baith k kuch khele, ek game hai dumb charades, every time last person to be chosen (points at Amitabh) (Off-camera when the family sits to play a game called dumb charades). He is atrocious at dumb charades. Woh kuch bhalta hi karenge, kuch ulta hi karenge. Everybody hum log yeh prarthana karte hai ki bhai kuch bhi hojay, dad humare team mein na ajaye, hum log haar jayenge. Off-camera inka koi bharosa nahi hai (He will definitely do something absurd. All of us pray that dad shouldn’t be in our team or we will lose. Off-camera, you can’t trust him).”
The next question Shoojit asked was–who feasts on junk food more–Amitabh or Abhishek. Amitabh replied, “Jitni baar break hota hai, aap log samajhte hai hum bhi gaye washroom. Actually main junk food khaane k liye chala jatah hoon (Every time there is a break, you think I go to the washroom. Actually I got to eat junk food).”
The video was shared with the caption, “Yeh toh bas trailer hai. Aaj KBC par phutenge hasi ke phavvaare
