Big B was candidly conversing with Dr. Rani Bang, during which he asked the latter her favourite singer. The Padma Shree awardee said that she liked the late Michael Jackson. As Amitabh had encountered with the pop singer in the past, he couldn’t control his excitement and shared the incident. He mentioned that despite the fame, the singer was humble. He said:
“I was staying at a hotel in New York when, one day, I heard a knock at my door. When I opened it, I was stunned to see Michael Jackson standing outside. I almost fainted but managed to keep my composure. I greeted him, and he inquired if this was my room. When I confirmed it, he realized he had mistakenly come to the wrong room.”
Amitabh shared another incident related to Michael Jackson that occurred when the latter had a show in America. Big B flew there to watch the show, but no rooms were available at the hotel. Apparently, all 350 rooms were booked for the singer and his team. However, the actor managed to get the back seats of the auditorium and watched the show. Praising the musician, Big B said:
“He was an extraordinary artist; his singing and dancing were phenomenal. The energy in the arena was electrifying, with thunderous applause and a truly magical atmosphere.”
