Amitabh Bachchan is 84 years old and remains exceptionally active across his film shoots, social media platforms, and hosting duties on the quiz-based reality show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati'. Throughout the seasons, Big B frequently takes time to share nostalgic memories, career reflections, and personal anecdotes from his younger days with the audience. A similar moment unfolded during a recent episode of the show, where Amitabh Bachchan recalled a time from his college years when he experienced eve-teasing from a group of female students. Joined by special guest Madhuri Dixit, the legendary actor recounted his first-ever visit to Delhi University's Miranda House and reflected on how that unexpected encounter gave him a firsthand glimpse into what women navigate daily.
The Miranda House Incident
In conversation with Madhuri Dixit, Amitabh Bachchan looked back at his initial visit to the prestigious Miranda House campus. He shared that several female students were seated in the hostel balcony when he arrived, and they made playful remarks as he walked past. Describing the moment, Big B noted that it was his first day at Miranda House, and the girls in the balcony called out comments about his walk, shouting out remarks that caught him completely off guard. He added that experiencing that sudden attention gave him an immediate understanding of what women endure regularly and what emotions they experience when subjected to passing remarks in public spaces.
A Humorous Reaction to an Unexpected Moment
Continuing his narrative, Amitabh Bachchan emphasized that certain realities cannot truly be understood until a person experiences them firsthand. He admitted that walking into Miranda House for the first time and hearing those comments left him momentarily baffled about how to react. Intrigued by the story, Madhuri Dixit asked him what he did in response to the situation. Big B replied in his trademark humorous style that he simply ran away from the spot, prompting loud laughter from Madhuri Dixit and everyone seated in the studio audience.
Upcoming Projects and Recent Security Concerns
Looking ahead at his professional commitments, Amitabh Bachchan will next be seen in the highly anticipated sequel to the sci-fi mythological epic 'Kalki 2898 AD', where he reprises his acclaimed role as 'Ashwatthama' alongside powerhouse stars like Prabhas and Kamal Haasan. Additionally, he is set to star in the suspense thriller 'Aankhen 2', sharing screen space with Sidharth Malhotra in a leading role. Beyond his cinematic endeavors, the veteran actor has recently been in the news due to a serious security threat. Authorities received a bomb threat targeting Amitabh Bachchan's Mumbai bungalow 'Jalsa'. A threatening email was sent to the Bombay High Court, which also named the BSE, the Worli Racecourse, and the actor's residence among the locations under potential threat.
