Amitabh Bachchan has again treated us to a picture collage of himself featuring his Brahmastra co-star Ranbir Kapoor on Thursday and we absolutely love it. The cine icon delighted us with a collage of pint-sized Ranbir Kapoor from the sets of the 1991 film Ajooba. The film, which was directed by Ranbir's granduncle Shashi Kapoor, featured Ranbir's father Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan in the main roles. In the picture, Big B can be seen greeting little Ranbir as he stands beside his granduncle Shashi Kapoor. The collage also featured a photograph of Ranbir and Big B from the sets of upcoming film Brahmastra. Sharing the picture on Instagram, Amitabh Bachchan wrote: "Then and now. The wide eyed Ranbir on sets of Ajooba with Shashi ji and me...And the dominant Ranbir today on sets of Brahmastra with moi...1990 to 2020! Phew! Been a while."
Here's the post we're talking about:
