Preity Zinta recalls sharing screen with Amitabh Bachchan in Armaan

Preity Zinta is a famous movie actress.

She appeared on a TV game show called Kaun Banega Crorepati, where she shared a funny memory.

Many years ago, in 2003, she made a movie called Armaan.

Preity really wanted to act with Amitabh Bachchan, a very famous actor.

She told the director, Honey Irani, that she would do the movie only if she had a scene with him.

The director joked that if she was dying to work with him, she should die in the scene.

So her character in the movie lies in a coma when Amitabh Bachchan comes into the room.

Preity says it was hard to act like she was in a coma because she kept shaking.

The crew kept telling her to stop moving.

She felt silly because Amitabh Bachchan was right there in the room.
