A recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati saw Kantara star Rishab Shetty on the hot seat with Amitabh Bachchan. The actor asked Big B about his memory with Kannada legend Dr Rajkumar, who was popularly known as Annavru. Speaking to the actor, Big B recalled how Rajkumar, who was known for his humility, performed urulu seve (rolling on the ground around the temple) for Amitabh’s speedy recovery after his near-fatal accident on the set of Coolie.

Speaking about Rajkumar’s simple nature, Amitabh shared, “In Karnataka, he is like a god but when I met him, he was very simple, down-to-earth. He wore simple clothes and lived in a very simple home. By looking at him, you couldn’t tell that he was a big star.”
