Amitabh Bachchan Recalls Jaya Bachchan's 'Lambu Ji' Nickname and Father's AdvicePreviousNext

Amitabh Bachchan shared a lighthearted story on Kaun Banega Crorepati about how his wife, Jaya Bachchan, affectionately called him 'Lambu Ji' (Mr. Tall) for several years after their marriage. However, his father, poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan, advised Jaya to stop using the nickname and instead address Amitabh by his name or another term. The conversation also touched on height differences within the Bachchan and Kapoor families, with Ranbir Kapoor imagining how their family photos would look considering these differences.
