Regarding his cameo as Aish’s uncle, the actor from Zanjeer claimed to have “felt really bad.”
Big B stated in the Rediff interview, “It’s only a cameo! I portray an orphanage director. I portray Aishwarya’s uncle as well. I was really sorry about it. My work allowed me to engage with children, which was one aspect I enjoyed. This is the first time I got to do that after Mr. Natwarlal. It becomes easier to play Ms Rai’s uncle as a result.”
But when it comes to Aish, “Ah, she’s really gorgeous. Jaya and I both think she looks amazing in KHGN. I think she should now focus on more challenging issues.”
