Amitabh added, “Ab jo log unko lene aaye the woh chale gaye honge aur dikhe nahi unhe. Toh, he went into the phone booth to call. Main bhi udhar bahar hi khada tha. Thodi der baad wo aaye and I can’t believe that he said this! Amitabh, can I borrow some money from you? I don’t have money to make a phone call!”
