Amitabh Bachchan Emotional as Late Mother’s Voice Plays on KBC
Amitabh Bachchan became emotional on the sets of Kaun Banega Crorepati during a special birthday-week episode when a recording of his late mother, Teji Bachchan, reciting a poem by his father, Harivansh Rai Bachchan, was played. The moment evoked memories of his parents and childhood, with monochrome photos accompanying the recitation. Teji Bachchan passed away in 2007. Ahead of his 84th birthday on October 11, Amitabh continues to work actively with multiple projects alongside KBC.
