Amitabh’s conversation with Raj and DK
Raj Nidimoru talked about his lifelong admiration for Amitabh Bachchan in the episode. “I have been a big fan of yours since childhood. I remember the time when I couldn’t even write your name; I considered Amitabh Bachchan just a word. From that moment on, I dreamed of working with you, but we didn’t know how to reach you. And we are here on KBC,” said Raj.
Amitabh returned the favor by expressing his desire to work with Raj & DK. “Come on, no problem, we will eat outside your house. And now there is no need to search for you, we will come to meet you ourselves. (Never mind, I’ll only stand outside your home. You don’t need to look for me now, I’ll only come to meet you),” Amitabh said.
“But actually, I have heard a lot about you and your work. Often, when we talk about films, your name comes up, and it is always said that you are the best in this field. But tell me, how do I contact Will you make a film together? Recently, a woman came to me and talked about a series, and I told that I worked on an old series that did not do well. I was hesitant to do it again. Sir, please work with Raj and DK, they make great stories. The conversation then turned to how to contact you and DK, now that we’ve met, and I’ve expressed my desire to work with you – you forget about the person sitting next to you!
Varun Dhawan, sitting next to Raj and DK on the hot seat, has worked with the director duo on their upcoming period spy thriller show Citadel: Honey Bunny. For those unaware, Amitabh made his long-form fiction debut with Ribhu Dasgupta’s 2014 psychological thriller miniseries Yudh, which also aired on Sony TV. However, Amitabh has not made his streaming debut yet.
Abhishek’s recommendation to Amitabh
Raj expressed his appreciation for the show and its host, saying, “It’s a privilege and an honor. We usually celebrate Diwali with our parents in Tirupati. We never got a chance to meet you before, so DK and I feel this is the biggest gift to us this Diwali.” In response, Amitabh Bachchan warmly shared, “Many people have come to me with proposals . Whenever an offer comes, I ask Abhishek (Bachchan, son), and he has said, ‘Raj and DK are the best; You should work with them!’ So, let’s make it happen.”
