He finished the work so quickly that it left the crew and his director friend surprised. In fact, they jokingly told him off for being too fast and efficient. He added, 'The crew and friend director tells me – 'I am spoiling the work template of work' ….they told me …'if you are going to finish an entire days work in one 4rth of half a day then, your client shall give more films to be made in the one day designated, and that shall set a bad precedent . . for all " !!Oh .. I just love this .. !!!!' Helping the crew matters more Despite the light-hearted scolding, the 'Sholay' actor shared that his main focus was to help the crew and producers by being quick and efficient, 'But the expediency of the work is helping the Producer and the crew .. I would rather do that for the benefit of the worker, than myself…' He also spoke about the many changes he has seen in the film world over the years but stopped short of sharing too much. Big B avoids talking about changes in the industry Amitabh explained why he doesn't like to comment too much on industry changes these days. According to him, anything he says could be twisted to create sensational headlines. 'Many a times they ask me what I have seen as change in the Film World .. and I have many changes noticed. BUT .. NO .. I shall not say it here , because this communication Universe has been besieged by the – IMPOTENCY OF CONTENT .. HAHAHAHA .. EACH EXPRESSION SHALL BE GIVEN A DIFFERENT MEANING IN ORDER TO ATTRACT A HEADLINE (sic).' Finding joy in work In the end, the 'Deewaar' actor summed up his thoughts by simply stating how much he enjoys what he does. 'The work is so rewarding." Even with a career spanning decades, he continues to find happiness in every role and every shoot. What's next for Big B?

‘Raha Ka Papa': Arjun Kapoor talks about how amazing fatherhood has been for Ranbir Kapoor; watch
In the last two decades, audiences have witnessed actor Ranbir Kapoor as various characters onscreen — from a playboy in Bachna Ae Haseeno (2008) to a 'criminal' son with daddy issues in Animal (2023). Currently, RK is gearing up to portray Lord Rama in Nitesh Tiwari's much-awaited Ramayana: Part 1. But it's Ranbir's real-life role of a doting father to his and Alia Bhatt's daughter Raha that is a forever favourite for all. As his mother Neetu Kapoor described, the actor's eyes light up when he's with Raha. Their bond is truly special and those who are close to the family have had a chance to watch it blossom beautifully. Like RK's friend and fellow actor Arjun Kapoor. A post shared by Alia Bhatt 💛 (@aliaabhatt) A few months ago, actor Arjun Kapoor described how the journey of fatherhood has been for Ranbir Kapoor, who welcomed daughter Raha into the world in 2022 with actor wife Alia Bhatt. This lesser-seen clip has now gone viral on social media. In a chat with Filmygyan, when asked to give RK a hashtag, Arjun shared, '#Father. I think these days when I see him, I see fatherhood has been so amazing for him. And he's so amazing in that space. So I think #Fatherhood. #Raha Ka Papa also is not bad.' A post shared by F I L M Y G Y A N (@filmygyan) It was during the prep for their passion project Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva (2022) that Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor fell in love. After dating for 5 long years, a few months before the release of the Ayan Mukerji directorial, the couple tied the knot at their Bandra home on April 14, 2022. In November that year, Alia and Ranbir were blessed with a beautiful baby girl who they named Raha, a name chosen by her dadi Neetu. Alia had shared, 'Raha, in its purest form means divine path, in Swahili she is Joy, In Sanskrit, Raha is a clan, In Bangla - rest, comfort, relief, in Arabic peace, it also means happiness, freedom & bliss. And true to her name, from the first moment we held her - we felt it ALL! ❤️ Thank you Raha, for bringing our family to life, it feels as though our lives have only just begun. ☀️☀️☀️.'
