During an engaging conversation with a contestant on the quiz show, the actor discussed his deep interest in sports and admitted that he and Abhishek indulge in some very quirky behaviors while watching games together. When the contestant asked if watching sports late at night ever caused domestic trouble, noting his own wife's objections, the superstar laughed and confirmed he faces a similar dynamic.
Sending Jaya Bachchan to Sleep First
Elaborating on how they manage things at home, the veteran actor explained that they have cleverly installed a separate television set. He revealed that they gently nudge his wife, Jaya Bachchan, to retire for the night by telling her it is getting late, allowing her to go to sleep so the father-son duo can enjoy matches all night long.
Using Headphones and Managing the Excitement
To ensure their late-night viewing does not disturb anyone else in the household, Amitabh Bachchan noted that they take precautions by wearing headphones and keeping the volume extremely low. However, keeping quiet during thrilling moments proves difficult. He shared that when their team wins or scores, they inevitably end up shouting in excitement. The sudden noise wakes up family members who rush out thinking something is wrong, forcing the actors to explain that their team just hit a boundary, a six, or scored a goal.
