Was once slapped by Waheeda, now praised: Amitabh Bachchan said – Actors used to hire 4 people to hold the mirror, Waheeda ji only kept the compact.

In the 15th season of the show Kaun Banega Crorepati, Amitabh Bachchan has praised veteran actress Waheeda Rehman. Big B has compared her to those stars who hired four people just to hold the mirror to check their look and make-up, although she managed with just a small compact mirror.

In the recently telecast episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 15, Delhi Metro’s senior station manager Richa Singh came on the hotseat. Before starting the game, a video of Richa Singh was shown to the audience, after which Amitabh Bachchan shared the story of veteran actress Waheeda Rehman.

Amitabh Bachchan and Waheeda Rehman were seen together in the film Reshma Aur Shera.

She told that Waheeda ji had a favorite compact (makeup product), with which she used to do all her makeup. She always kept that small compact with her. He further said, at that time there were many actors who kept four people with them just to hold the mirror, because before the start of the shot they had to see everything, makeup, outfit. He used to see whether everything was perfect or not. However, after saying this, Amitabh Bachchan refused to take the names of those actors saying that if he takes the names of those actors then they will catch me.
