Bollywood’s Big B, aka Amitabh Bachchan, is known for his humble and polite nature. The man, the myth, and the legend has been enthralling audiences for decades, and it has been very rare to see Big B angry. However, do you know there was one instance when Amitabh Bachchan lost his cool at Abhishek and scolded him in front of everyone? Yes, you read that right. However, the scenario is not what one would think, as there is a spinoff in the situation. Scroll down to read about it.  Why did Amitabh Bachchan get angry at Abhishek? While everyone might think that we are discussing Abhishek Bachchan, it is not the case. The actor in discussion is Stree fame Abhishek Banerjee. Recalling his first meeting with Big B, Abhishek revealed that he was in awe, shivering, and had goosebumps on set, as the moment of working with the superstar was extremely special to him. He said, “I went for his feet, naturally. But, he got very upset with me. He immediately said, ‘What are you doing? Why are you doing this?’ I was so confused because Indian families teach this only – touching the feet of elders. But then I later realised and spoke to the film’s director Ribhu Dasgupta. He told me that Amitabh sir doesn’t like this because he feels that the minute you do that, you are not a co-actor. You are already putting him on a pedestal.” He later added that Amitabh is such a professional actor that he wants to meet everyone with equal love and grace. Not just that, he also helps his co-stars perform well so that they don’t get overshadowed.

Abhishek Banerjee says Amitabh Bachchan has ‘no ego’

Abhishek emphasised that Amitabh has zero ego. He said, “There is no ego in that man, but there is more professionalism than any actor I have worked with. I am including all the younger ones; nobody in this industry is as professional as Amitabh Bachchan.”
