EXCLUSIVE: Mukesh Khanna says he was misquoted against Amitabh Bachchan, calls Tiger Shroff his ‘bachcha’ reacting to statement against him

Mukesh Khanna, a well-known actor who is famous for his role as the superhero Shaktimaan, has clarified that he was incorrectly quoted in relation to Amitabh Bachchan. Additionally, when making comments about Tiger Shroff, he referred to him as if they were father and son.

During a conversation with TopMob’s Hindi Rush, Mukesh Khanna reminisced about being questioned by reporters at Patna airport regarding the Mahabharata production by Ravi Chopra featuring Amitabh Bachchan as Bhishma Pitamah. He highlighted that the media was eager to hear from him because they knew his response would generate news headlines.

He added, recalling being prompted, “Can he manage it?” he asked, and then commented that he rarely provides an audio clip longer than two seconds. However, in this case, he found himself unable to escape since there was a wall behind him.

As a die-hard fan, I’ve always maintained that he is indeed a remarkable actor with an impressive body of work spanning numerous diverse roles. He recently stepped into the character of Gabbar Singh, so rest assured, his talent and skill will not disappoint.” (Emphasizing that my initial statement about him was accurate despite any misquotes or misunderstandings.)

He continued discussing his thoughts on Tiger Shroff, explaining that to him, Tiger is just a kid, meaning he’s young from my perspective. If Tiger were teaching other children, they would likely play around him instead of understanding his words, as they would be playing a game like hide and seek with him…they would comprehend what he said.

As for the depiction that I was trying to upstage Tiger Shroff, here’s my take on it: “I was merely portrayed as stepping into a different role, and there’s no animosity or intention to overshadow him.” On a final note, when reflecting upon this situation, I find myself chuckling and reiterating that I have no personal business with anyone.
