Apart from his catchy Bollywood tunes, singer Mika Singh always has a story to tell about his run-ins and experiences with the biggest stars of Bollywood. A recurring character in all these stories is none other than the stalwart Amitabh Bachchan, who the singer has talked about on many different platforms. In a recent interview, Mika revealed how Amitabh gave him some advice about the way he handles his social appearances and how the singer felt a little embarrassed after the conversation.
In an appearance on the Shubhankar Mishra podcast on YouTube, Mika revealed the embarrassing advice he received after he showed up at Amitabh’s party uninvited. “I went to Amitabh Bachchan’s house on Diwali, and I just drove my Hummer through the gate, without any invitation. I had a big car, and the guards must have opened the gates because they thought I was a big star. I drove the car around for two to three times, and then he told me to come into his house rather than doing this. I felt rather embarrassed after that,” added Mika.
The singer shared his experience after he went into the part and how he was absolutely star-struck seeing the people there. “I went into the house, and big stars were all standing around waiting to meet him. Mr Ambani and Sachin Tendulkar were standing around him, and I felt out of place, so I started moving away. That is when he addressed me in front of everyone and told me to wait. He didn’t need to do that, but he made me wait so that I could meet everyone.”
As mentioned before, the singer has talked about his favourite actors Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan multiple times. He has praised their humility and how they have treated him throughout his time in the industry. To show his appreciation, Mika had even gifted a watch worth Rs 50 lakh to both Shah Rukh and Amitabh, and how the former even tried to return the ring, but Mika refused to take it back.
