“If a man smells good, he’s a good man. Mr. Bachchan thought I was stalking him. He was progressively uncomfortable with the fact that I could identify his perfumes each time” says Jiah Khan.
“You see when I was 16 I worked at a perfume counter. I think I freaked him out quite a few times. I must tell you about one incident. I remember one day I walked in and he looked at me as though to say, ‘What the hell are you wearing?’ I’ll never forget that look”, says Jiah with a glow in her eyes.
About her first meeting with the Big B Jiah says, “When I met him for the first time he spoke a lot because I was so nervous. He made me feel very comfortable. After that he became the character. He wasn’t Mr. Bachchan. If he remained that I wouldn’t have been able to emote properly.”
