During a Kaun Banega Crorepati episode promoting The Family Man 3, actor Jaideep Ahlawat shared a unique childhood tradition with Amitabh Bachchan that left the superstar pleasantly surprised. Growing up in his village, Jaideep recalled, “Whenever a baby was born, the celebrations always included screening your films: Deewar, Zanjeer, and Don. I must have seen each of those movies well over a hundred times.”

He also revealed that the soundtrack of Sholay was played during every major festival, from Holi to Diwali, making Big B an integral part of his formative years.

The episode also featured Manoj Bajpayee and Sharib Hashmi promoting The Family Man 3. Manoj recounted a humorous first meeting with Amitabh during the screening of Satya, where he was unexpectedly ushered to meet the superstar and left starstruck before receiving a warm hug from Big B.

The Family Man 3 continues Srikant Tiwari’s (Manoj Bajpayee) high-stakes missions while balancing family life, with Jaideep Ahlawat joining as the formidable antagonist Rukma. The season premieres on Prime Video on 21 November.
