Back in 2017, when Sarkar 3 came out, the cast of the film including Amitabh Bachchan and Jackie Shroff were part of the promotions. They answered many questions of the media while promoting the film. When Jackie was asked how he felt about sharing space with Big B the man himself, Jackie Shroff aka “Bhidu” gave his response in his own style and said that who wouldn’t want to do a film with Amitabh sir. He pointed to the audience and said that if they got the film they would do it too and his case was similar! During the interview, we saw Amitabh Bachchan and Shroff affectionately praise each other and fans loved it!
Amitabh Bachchan even addressed him as Bhidu during the interview and treated him like a close junior. The love between them was obvious as they praised each other! While Jackie Shroff took some time to form sentences, Big B took this time to tease him and entertain the audience as well!
Shroff and Bachchan had previously acted together in the film Eklavya and the former shared an incident from then. He said that Amitabh Bachchan was the only one who asked him if he was alright after a fight scene in which he wasn’t wearing protection. He felt really grateful for him and they have since maintained a very loving and cordial relationship. During the interview, the two laughed together and even hugged each other in a form of respect and adoration!
