While Amitabh Bachchan is heartbroken after the demise of colleague and good friend Rishi Kapoor, he feels his Piku co-star Irrfan's death is 'more tragic'. The veteran actor took to social media to explain why he feels this way.
On Saturday morning, Amitabh Bachchan shared a couple of photographs with Irrfan from the sets of their 2015 film Piku and also a throwback black and white still with Rishi Kapoor.
He captioned: "The death of an elder celebrity vs death of a younger .. the grief of the latter more intense than that of the former .. why ..? The younger more tragic. Why the loss of the young seems more tragic than that of the older .. Because you lament the loss of opportunity in the latter .. unrealised possibilities..."
Big B also took to his social media accounts, where he shared a lyrical music video from the Umesh Shukla directorial, which recreated the classic song Waqt ne kiya kya haseen sitam in his voice. The original Geeta Dutt classic, for Guru Dutt's 1959 film Kagaz Ke Phool, was composed by SD Burman and written by Kaifi Azmi. The recreation for the 2018 film was done by composers Rohan-Vinayak. The recreated version for 102 Not Out was crooned by Big B himself. "Waqt.. Waqt ne kiya kya haseen sitam .. Tum rahe na tum, hum rahe na hum." he captioned the video.
The black-and-white video uses Big B and Rishi Kapoor's avatars from 102 Not Out for visuals, and runs for five minutes and 16 seconds. In the dramedy, Kapoor essayed the 76-year-old son of a 102-year-old man, played by Bachchan.
