Here’s what a ‘humbled’ Big B had to say about the Clash Titans!
Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan, over the span of three decades, has been paid homage to in one way or the other. But he has never been as ‘humbled’ as he is today where the two fierce titans of Bollywood, Raees and Kaabil, are going head-on at the ticket counters, but simultaneously paying homage to the legendary artist.
In Kaabil, Hrithik mimics the actor to fulfill his wife, Yami Gautam‘s desire to speak to the Bollywood legend. On the other hand, Shah Rukh Khan pulls off the role of an angry young man spectacularly. To top that, a movie of the iconic actor is played in a drive-in theater in the second half of Raees.
Here’s what he personally had to say:
I am not believing this .. but am extremely humbled, to see my reference in name and film, in both the recent releases – RAEES and KAABIL https://t.co/0YDzGzKNJh

You deserve all the credit and homage that comes your way, Sr. Bachchan! Thank you for all the wonderful movies.
In the meanwhile, Kaabil and Raees are running successfully in theaters.
