At an event last week, Arjun, 42, was asked which Hindi cinema actor inspires him the most.
In his response, the actor heaped praises on Bachchan, saying the cinema veteran had “a great impact on us in our growing years”.
On Monday, Bachchan, 82, retweeted a video from the event and also wished Arjun lots of success.
“#AlluArjun ji .. so humbled by your gracious words .. you give me more than I deserve .. we are all such huge fans of your work and talent .. may you continue to inspire us all .. my prayers and wishes for your continued success!” he wrote on X.
“Amitabh ji inspires me the most… I absolutely adore the megastar of the country, Amitabh ji because we have grown up watching his films. He had a great impact on us in our growing years.
“I’m an ardent fan of Amitabh ji. Even till date, at this age too… I keep thinking, even if I get really old, I should still be acting like how gracefully Amitabh ji is doing it. I keep thinking, if you’re 60 or 80, you should work as beautifully as Amitabh ji does,” the actor said, according to the video circulating on social media.
