But the language of Mumbai that we speak, sir, you have given us that beautiful language as well. There was a dialogue of yours as well”.

Big B said,“Oh, yes! In real life. It was in Amar Akbar Anthony. I was standing in the corner and someone ran towards me, so I hit him on the leg and he fell down. Yes. I caught him.

Why are you running, brother?”.
