Ek baar hua yeh ki hum dono ek hi plane mein jaa rahe the London. Finally, we landed at Heathrow Airport (What a man! Once we were both travelling via the same flight to London)." "Ab jo log unko lene aaye the woh chale gaye honge.
Toh he went into the phone booth to call. Main bhi udhar bahar hi khada tha. Thodi der baad wo aaye and I can't believe that he said this, 'Amitabh, can I borrow some money from you? I don’t have money to make a phonecall!' (The people who were supposed to receive him must have gone away.
I was waiting outside there. A while later, he came and asked me whether he could borrow some money from me to make a phone call)", the superstar added.
