'He Was Very Rude' Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hain Actor On Being Brutally Snubbed By Amitabh Bachchan

Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain actor Saanand Verma who has also featured in films like Mardaani, Raid and Vijay 69 and web series by Sacred Games recently opened up about working with Amitabh Bachchan twice in his career and how the two experiences were extremely contrasting.

Saanand stated that Amitabh Bachchan treated him like a son when they first worked together but the second time, the megastar was rude to him.

He told Hindi Rush, “I have spoken to many stars but I didn’t think much about them. But I felt Amitabh Bachchan’s aura when I was shooting Kaun Banega Crorepati’s promo. The first time I met him… he was like… I felt like I am Abhishek Bachchan. I felt like I am his son. We spoke for three hours.”

He then added, “However, the second time I met him to shoot an advertisement, he was very rude. After completing the shoot, I went and told him, ‘I consider myself very fortunate to be able to work with you twice.’ But he didn’t even look at me, he kept staring at a painting and said, ‘Bhagwan kare apko tibara mile (May God give you a third chance also)”.

Despite his extreme experiences, Saanand stated, “He gave me a lot of attention the first time and ignored me completely the second time, that contrast was noticeable. I love and respect Amit ji a lot. I don’t think there is another actor like him in Hindi film industry but yes nobody is friends in the film industry.”
