When Mika Singh ‘gatecrashed’ Amitabh Bachchan’s Diwali party after being pranked into speaking with his impersonator on phone

by

As a die-hard fan of the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, I can’t help but be captivated by every tale that weaves its way into his extraordinary life. The stories of Mika Singh and his escapades with Mr. Bachchan are nothing short of enchanting!

From gatecrashing Diwali parties to inviting the iconic actor to his shows, Mika’s relentless pursuit of his idol is both comical and inspiring. And who could forget the prank Daler Mehndi played on him? I can just imagine Mika standing up out of respect, only to realize he had been talking to an impersonator the whole time!

But what truly warms my heart is how this story ends. When Amitabh Bachchan finally acknowledged Mika’s persistence and invited him into his circle, it was a moment that reinforced my belief in the power of unwavering admiration.

And now, to lighten the mood, let me share a little joke I made up: Why did Amitabh Bachchan refuse to play hide-and-seek with Mika Singh? Because even when he closed his eyes, he could still see the stardust in Mika’s eyes!

In an interview, singer Mika Singh expressed his great respect for the iconic Amitabh Bachchan and shared a humorous anecdote about unexpectedly attending one of Bachchan’s Diwali celebrations. Additionally, Mika noted that his brother, Daler Mehndi, gained widespread recognition in the 1990s by collaborating with Bachchan on a song. Mika fondly remembered another instance where Daler orchestrated a joke by having a Bachchan look-alike call him and chat as if it were the genuine Amitabh Bachchan, leading Mika to believe he was conversing with the real person.

In conversation with The Lallantop, Mika Singh recounted a few humorous episodes from his past. He reminisced about how every year, Amitabh Bachchan would celebrate Diwali at home, and Mika, captivated by the festive decorations, would often find himself yearning for an invitation to join in the celebrations.

In one audacious moment, he opted to cruise his Hummer through Bachchan’s residence, uninvited, making a few laps before departing. He also shared that he frequently extended invitations to Bachchan for his performances by sending messages, with Bachchan typically replying with “May God bless you.

Later on, Mika mentioned that he had shared this with Daler. Instead of being Bachchan, Daler explained, it was just him they’d been speaking to. Jokingly, Daler promised to connect Mika with the “true” Bachchan. He dialed a number and put on an act, pretending to converse with Bachchan, saying something like, “Hey Mr. Bachchan, it’s your friend Mika who wants to chat with you.

Upon sensing an uncanny resemblance, I promptly rose with reverence, engaging in conversation with the individual who echoed Bachchan’s distinctive voice. It wasn’t until much later that I, Mika, discovered Daler had orchestrated a playful trick – I had been conversing with an impersonator throughout our entire interaction.

Mika disclosed how he uncovered the secret behind the joke. He detailed that, after resigning himself to the fact that Amitabh Bachchan wouldn’t attend any of his shows, he ceased sending him invitations. One day, during a filming session, The Piku actor recognized him and summoned him over.

Bachchan inquired about the reason for the halt in message exchanges, expressing eagerness that had built up during this gap, and subtly nudged Mika not to discontinue these interactions. This instance, however, made Mika’s admiration for Bachchan surge even more profoundly.
