Amitabh Bachchan has shared some advice for married men and said that one must not question his wife as she knows the best when it comes to food.

Contestant Biren told Amitabh that his wife controls his diet and reminded the star that he is also possessive about his food. The audience was then shown a video from season 13 that had Amitabh’s daughter Shweta Bachchan and granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda as guests.

In the video, Jaya Bachchan said, “When asked what will he eat, he tells me ‘whatever you feel like’. And when I ask if I should give him roti, soup or vada pao, he does not want any of those. He does not want roti, soup is boring for him and vada pao messes up with his stomach. And, he will again end the conversation with ‘whatever you feel like’. What does that mean?”

After seeing the video Amitabh said, “Sir dekhiye patni ke baarey mein zyada utaar chaddhav nahi karna chahiye joh voh bole usse chup chap maan lena chahiye. Na mile baingan, nah mile bhindi, ya aloo koi baat nahi. Putra ke liye kya hain sahi voh dekhna chahiye sir, maa joh hain voh apne bacho ke liye bohot dhyaan rakhti hain”(Listen, sir, you should always listen to your wife. Even if you don’t get brinjal, ladyfinger, or potato; no problem but for son and daughter she needs to see what is good. Moms take care of their children) .”

Apart from KBC, Amitabh has seen theatrical releases of his films Brahmastra, Uunchai and Goodbye this year. He starred alongside Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt in Aya Mukerji’s Brahmastra, while he played Neena Gupta’s husband in Goodbye.

Amitabh worked with Sooraj Barjatya for the first time in their new film Uunchai that has had a good run at the box office and also features Anupam Kher, Danny Denzongpa, Boman Irani, Sarika and Neena.
