To work with megastar Amitabh Bachchan has been on every filmmaker’s bucket list. However, movie maverick Imtiaz Ali doesn’t envision himself doing so, for the sheer reason of being starstruck by the actor’s charisma and down-to-earth personality. On the latest episode of Mid-day’s Sit With Hitlist series, Imtiaz Ali speaks of his love for the superstar and recalls the time he sent a letter appreciating ‘Rockstar’. 

Imtiaz shared, “Even when I knew that some of my movies have worked and now maybe if I go to Amitabh Bachchan, he`ll agree. I was always very scared of going to him because, what if he agrees? Like I can`t be working with Amitabh Bachchan. That`s what I used to think. Amitabh Bachchan is too big. Shah Rukh Khan can`t be that big for me because he`s younger also. Even Bachchan Saab doesn`t know what he is."
