Sachin Pilgaonkar Recalls Teasing Jaya Bachchan By Becoming Secret Admirer Of Amitabh Bachchan: “He Would Often Swing By Our Hotel After Work…”

Actor, director, producer, writer and singer Sachin Pilgaonkar recalled teasing Jaya Bachchan from the sets of the movie ‘Satte Pe Satta’ by pretending to be a secret admirer of megastar Amitabh Bachchan. He also spoke about Big B’s introverted nature and how it took time for him to be part of their mischievous gang.

Sachin said: “The shooting for the movie was almost like a picnic for all of us. Initially, Amitabh Bachchan’s introverted personality left us scratching our heads because one could never guess what mood he was in. But after spending some time with our mischievous gang of seven, he began to loosen up and let his playful side shine.”

The 65-year-old actor started as a child artist in the Marathi film industry, with ‘Ha Majha Marg Ekla’ in 1962, and later he went on to work in around 65 films as a child artist. After playing a lead actor in movies like ‘Geet Gaata Chal’, ‘Balika Badhu’, ‘Ankhiyon Ke Jharokhon Se’ and ‘Nadiya Ke Paar’, he became a popular face of the entertainment industry. Sachin has also acted, directed and produced TV shows including ‘Tu Tu Main Main’. He played supporting roles in ‘Trishul’, ‘Sholay’, ‘Avtaar’, and ‘Satte Pe Satta’.
