Mumbai, Oct 13
Farhan Akhtar has revealed that a hand-written letter from Amitabh Bachchan, which the megastar sent him after watching Dil Chahta Hai, remains the most prestigious award for the filmmaker, actor, and singer.
It was during Big B’s 83rd birthday celebrations on the sets of “Kaun Banega Crorepati Season”, when Farhan and Javed Akhtar sat on the hotseat for an episode for the quiz-based reality show.
During the episode Farhan shared the touching revelation and said: “We all know how much you (Big B) love writing letters. In my office, there’s a corner where I display all my film awards.”
“And right there, alongside them, I’ve placed your letter — the one you wrote to me after watching Dil Chahta Hai. For me, that letter is the most prestigious award of all. Thank you so much," he added.
