In the video clip, Varun recalled, "Main chota tha toh aapne ghar pe bulaya tha bhojan ke liye Bade Miyan Chote Miyan ke waqt. Aur main khanne ke liye ja raha tha but aap aise baith ke ghoor rahe the. Mujhe laga main khanna khau ya maine kuch galat kar diya hai cutlery ke sath. Fir Jaya ji ne bola vo aise hi. Vo tumhe nai dekh rahe vo kuch aur soch rahe hai. Tum khao." Amitabh, visibly surprised, listened intently as Varun recounted the story.
Varun also shared a photo with Amitabh Bachchan on his Instagram Stories, posing alongside series creators Raj and DK. All four looked dapper, though Varun left the image caption-free.
