Amid Abhishek Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai divorce rumours, Amitabh Bachchan says he wants to catch his son & granddaughter for a deep conversation about Kalki 2898 AD

While the divorce rumours of Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have been taking the internet by storm, Amitabh Bachchan, who is basking in the success of Kalki 2898 AD, said that he would like to have a deep conversation with his son and granddaughter Aaradhya about the movie.

For the unversed, Big B portrayed the larger-than-life role of Ashwatthama, a character from the Mahabharata in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD.

In a new conversation between Nag Ashwin and Amitabh Bachchan shared by the Vyjayanthi Movies YouTube channel, Big B said that he would be interested in talking with younger people about the epic mythological sci-fi. “It’s all very well to ask people coming out of the theatre what they felt, but we need to catch some people, the youngsters, and say, ‘Let’s sit down and have a chat and talk about what did you actually see, what was going through your mind?’ It would make a very interesting subject. I’m going to catch Abhishek and my granddaughter, and have a chat with them,” said the legendary actor.

Expressing his gratitude to Big B, Nag said, “I know you don’t like this, but this is one of the few chances we have to thank you for your patience. The whole country, whoever I speak to, but they say it’s such a pleasure to see you in that avatar. I did a bunch of interviews, and everybody just said, ‘Thank you for giving us this Amitabh Bachchan’.”

Replying to the filmmaker, the actor said, “I just feel that the compliment isn’t to me, it’s to the concept and the character. It speaks volumes about the film. It’s not a compliment about a certain star, and they liked their performance, and so on and so forth… When they compliment a Prabhas or a Deepika, they’re actually complimenting the concept of the director, Nagi, who was able to conceive and put together this story.”
