One often hears many things connected with it. But apart from his brilliant acting, powerful voice and amazing style, there is also a story about Big B that surprises everyone. The incident took place during the shooting of a film, when Amitji suddenly got nervous due to some problem and fell at the feet of veteran actor and filmmaker Mehmood and started pleading. He got so upset that he locked himself in a room. Let’s know an interesting and funny story related to the life of Amitabh Bachchan.
Big B was Mahmood Sahib’s favourite
These were the days when Amitabh Bachchan was a rising star. The biggest problem for most artists in his time was dancing. In the year 1972, the shooting of the film ‘Bombay to Goa’ was going on. The producer of the film Mehmood Sahib was a fan of Amitabh Bachchan. Mahmood used to say that Amit’s eyes spoke louder than his voice. Mahmood, who was a fan of his acting, considered Amitabh Bachchan as a complete backward in dance.
While Amitabh Bachchan did not reach the set for the whole day
When Amitabh was offered the lead role in the film, his biggest challenge was dancing. Bachchan Sahib was feeling very uncomfortable to dance during the shooting of one of the songs of the film ‘Hey Re Dekha Na, Hey Re Socha Na’. Wanted to quit dancing. He was so nervous about dancing that one day he didn’t even make it to the set.
The Shahenshah of Bollywood started pleading at Mehmood’s feet
As soon as Amitji started dancing during the shoot, everyone present on the set started laughing. Seeing this, Amitabh got embarrassed and thought so much that he got fever and went to rest room and slept. After some time when Mehmood reached Big B’s room, Amitji got up seeing him. They thought that Mehmood would force them to dance. Thinking this, Amitabh Bachchan fell at his feet and started crying loudly. ‘Amitabh said, brother, I can’t dance this dance.’ Hearing this, Mahmood said, ‘He who can walk on his feet can also dance.’ Mahmood told Amitabh that ‘Dance must be done in any case.’
Amitabh Bachchan’s dance became a hit
After this, Mehmood came on the set and instructed everyone to record Amitabh Bachchan’s dance. After this, when Amitabh Bachchan danced, he received huge applause and the song started making waves as soon as it was released. Everyone became his fan. This film boosted Amitabh Bachchan’s career.
