In a recent event, Bollywood veteran actress Rekha surprised everyone by expressing her admiration for Amitabh Bachchan, fondly referred to as “Big B,” in front of superstar Salman Khan.
Salman and Rekha’s Viral Moment
Salman Khan, a Bollywood superstar with numerous hit films like Dabangg, is well-known for his role as Chulbul Pandey. One of his most famous lines from the movie, directed at Sonakshi Sinha’s character, goes, “Pyar se de rahe hain, rakh lo. Varna thappad maar ke bhi de sakte hain” (Offering with love, take it; else, I can give it with a slap too). This iconic line still resonates with fans.
In the viral video, Rekha and Salman share the stage at an event. When Salman repeats his famous dialogue from Dabangg, Rekha responds in her trademark style, saying, “Thappad se dar nahi lagta sahib, pyar se bhi dar nahi lagta hai. Woh toh mein beinteha kar sakti hoon. Par mujhe ek cheez se dar lagta hai — Big B se.” (I’m not afraid of a slap, nor of love; I can do that endlessly. But there’s only one thing I fear — Big B). This witty response left the audience in splits, while even Salman was seen blushing.
