AMITABH
AND ABHISHEK ON KOFFEE WITH KARAN!
Radio
Sargam Report: “If there was another name for cinema…
it would be Amitabh Bachchan!” states Karan Johar as he welcomes
the Big B on his popular television show Koffee with Karan. "So
tell me uncle", Karan continues, “How does it feel to have
the most eligible bachelor at home?” Before pa Bachchan senior
can answer, Junior Bachchan butts in wth a response ‘Why don’t
I hear of all these girls who find me hot?’…
And when
Karan asks “What part of a woman turns you on the most?” Abhishek
answers “Her eyes”. Immediately Amitabh warns his son, with
a mischievous glint in his eyes, “Don’t you dare go any lower!”
This episode
of “Koffee with Karan” is full of moments like this –
moments that show the unique relationship between the father-son duo.
More friends and confidantes than father and son, their unique chemistry
comes alive on the screen. When asked about his son’s rumored link-ups
with Preity Zinta, Rani Mukherjee & Lara Dutta, Bachchan senior
very nonchalantly replies, “Abhishek would’ve told me first
if there was anything serious happening! We are more like friends than
father and son.”
The Bachchans
are known for their reticence and the dignified silence they maintain
in the face of incessant media scrutiny. Only on this episode of Koffee
with Karan do you get to know the truth behind all the speculation:
What does Amitabh think of Abhishek as an actor? Which Amitabh role
does Abhishek dislike? What was the impact of the Karisma’s break-up
on Abhishek?
Who is Abhishek really seeing?
And if
that were not all, the surprise round is one hell of a scene-stealer.
Watch Big B gasp for fresh air as the leading ladies of Bollywood weigh
in on who is sexier, Amitabh or Abhishek. And don’t miss the rapid
fire round with the two Bachchans cornered by the witty host as he bombards
a volley of awkward questions, which they have to answer in less than
90 seconds. The rapid fire round reveals all: Who would Abhishek choose
between Preity and Rani? And whom would Amitabh choose between Kajol
and Rani? All this and more in this episode.
The episode
will air on Star Plus in the UK on 27th March 2005.
