In the video, an emotional Rajkummar Rao can be recalling the sweet thing Amitabh Bachchan did for his mom. The Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana actor said in Hindi, “When I was shooting for Newton, I got the news that she is no more. She was never able to come to Mumbai but she used to say that I want to meet you (Amitabh) once. So when she died, I felt really guilty that I wasn’t able to get her to meet you. That very night when (she died), I contacted you and told you about it.”

Continuing further, Rajkummar Rao added, “I asked you if it was possible for you to make a short video for her and I will not show it to anyone else and I’ll just play the video in front of her photo because she just wanted to meet you once. And sir, you instantly made a video for her and I played it in front of her photo and for some reason sir the video disappeared from the pen drive on its own. Nobody knows where the video is. I think it was meant to be between you and her and thank you so much for doing this.” Rajkummar’s mother, Kamlesh Yadav died in March 2016.
Isn’t that super sweet!
Happy Birthday Amitabh Bachchan.
