However, to lighten up the mood, Abhishek joked, “Though you pampered me, I know you love Shweta Di more.” He later reminisced about the time when his father made sure to cheer for him during a basketball match and also recognised the actor in him.

Abhishek continued, “I know I was a naughty kid in childhood, but when I was seven months old, the first word I uttered was ‘Paa’. Remember Paa, when it was a difficult time for me during a basketball match, you left all your work and came to cheer me. You are the one who introduced me to the actor in me. You were the one who gave feathers to my dreams.”

From his father, junior Bachchan said that he learned how “there is nothing more powerful than your work, nothing is more valuable than people’s love and nothing is beyond family.” The actor concluded, “I have learnt so much from you, I don’t know what to gift you on your 80th birthday. But I can promise one thing, ‘Zindagi ki khel mein jab jab dukh aapko satayega, tab tab aapka ye beta aapki sabse badi lifeline ban jayega. I love you.”

Abhishek came with many surprises for his father on the set of Kaun Banega Crorepati. He was joined by his mother, Jaya Bachchan, as they celebrated Amitabh’s life and career. He also introduced videos of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Aaradhya, Navya Naveli Nanda, Shweta Bachchan and Agastya Nanda wishing Amitabh a happy birthday.
