In one of the recent episodes of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Amitabh Bachchan revealed what happened when he first met globally popular singer Michael Jackson. Big B revealed that he was in New York when Jackson mistakenly knocked at his hotel room door. The Bollywood star shared that while he ‘almost fainted’ upon seeing Jackson, the latter was very ‘humble’.
“I was staying at a hotel in New York when, one day, I heard a knock at my door. When I opened it, I was stunned to see Michael Jackson standing outside. I almost fainted but managed to keep my composure. I greeted him, and he inquired if this was my room. When I confirmed it, he realized he had mistakenly come to the wrong room. Later, when he went to his own room, he sent someone to connect with the person whose room he had accidentally entered. Eventually, we had the chance to sit down and talk. Despite his enormous fame, he was incredibly humble. That’s how we first met,” Amitabh said as quoted by Hindustan Times.
The Bollywood actor also shared another incident when he attended one of Michael Jackson’s shows in America. Recalling his experience, Big B shared that the singer was ‘phenomenal’.
“On another occasion, Michael Jackson had a show in America, and it was a struggle to get from New York to the venue. When we arrived at the hotel, we were told there were no rooms available. We requested them, but they said that all 350 rooms were booked for Michael Jackson and his team. After multiple efforts, we managed to get seats at the back of the stadium, and we were able to watch his performance. He was an extraordinary artist; his singing and dancing were phenomenal. The energy in the arena was electrifying, with thunderous applause and a truly magical atmosphere,” he added.
Amitabh Bachchan was last seen in Kalki 2898 AD with Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan.
Michael Jackson passed away in 2009.
