Amitabh Bachchan and Ravi Kishan at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's Shubh Ashirvad ceremony

At Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding festivities, Amitabh Bachchan and Ravi Kishan shared a warm moment as they applauded each other’s work. During the Shubh Aashirwad ceremony of Anant and Radhika, Ravi called Amitabh the “megastar of the millennium,” appreciating his work in Kalki 2898 AD, while Amitabh, in turn, complimented Ravi for his brilliant portrayal of a corrupt police officer in Laapataa Ladies.

In a video shared from the event on Ravi’s Instagram handle, the duo can be seen sharing great camaraderie, with Amitabh saying, “Bohot accha kaam kiya (You did a very good job),’ to which Ravi replies in Awadhi, “Main kya kehne ja raha tha aap to bhula hi diye (You made me forget what I was about to say).” An overwhelmed Ravi then hugs Amitabh.

The BJP MP then points to others capturing the video and says, “Ye sab log paglaye the ki theatre me hi dekhenge film (These people went crazy that they want to experience the film in the theater).” Amitabh replies, “Kuchh nahi bas chhota sa role tha humara (Nothing much, I had a small part in the movie).” The lady recording the clip says, “It was beautiful. Aapke aate hi we had goosebumps (We got goosebumps when you came on-screen).”

Sharing the heartwarming video, Ravi Kishan captioned the post: “I was praising his character yesterday, and the great actor Shri @amitabhbachchan ji was praising my character Manohar from #laapataaladies. This shows the greatness of the actor and the person. That’s why he is the megastar of the century. His love and blessings remain in this form.”

The video, which has been widely shared on social media, received praises from netizens, with some loving their conversation in Awadhi. “Two legends from Uttar Pradesh,” read a comment, while another one wrote, “Dono Ko Awadhi Me Baat Karte Hue Bada Anand Aaya. Mumbai Aakar Apni Bhasa Me Baat Karna Lagbhag Log Bhool Jate. Love You (Both of them enjoyed talking in Awadhi. People almost forget to talk in their own language after coming to Mumbai. Love You).”

For the unversed, Amitabh Bachchan plays the character of Ashwatthama in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD.
