The host of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) 16, actor Amitabh Bachchan, won over his fans’ hearts by tying a contestant’s shoelaces. Sony Entertainment Television shared a quick video of Amitabh Bachchan offering to tie a child contestant’s laces on the hot seat on Instagram.
The video starts with the little girl tying her shoelaces, and A B approached her. He said, “Khul gaya? Lace khul gaya? Hum bandh de. The girl smiled and replied, “Haan chalega.” She unfastened her laces as Amitabh stepped forward to fix them, which caused Amitabh to wonder, “Aare bandha tha kaahe khol rahi hai phirse?”Then AB said, “Hum baandhenge?”
As he tied her shoelaces, he quoted, “Isme pehle se hi gadbad hai.” The girl stated that it would never come off again when he had finished tying the shoelaces. According to Amitabh, the shoelaces were tied incorrectly in the first place. “Humne toh upar upar se aese hi bandh diya hai.”
The video was posted on Instagram with the caption, “Agar laces AB bante, toh hum bhi kabhi na kholte!”
Netizens went gaga over the video. One commented, “Due to this nature of yours you are popular all over the world, you do not consider anyone as big or small, you give love to everyone, may God keep you very happy.” Another reads, “What a moment for the kid, she will remember it her lifetime. The Amitabh Bachchan tied her shoelaces.”
