January 30th, 2009

Superstar Amitabh Bachchan’s surprise visit to the premiere of film Chandni Chowk to China (CC2C)in London literally floored the action hero Akshay Kumar who was overwhelmed by the presence of the ‘Shahanshah’ of Bollywood.

Welcoming the “Big B”, Akshay Kumar said “I would like to invite Amitabh Bachchan whom I adore.”

Admiring the rapid progress made by Akshay as a leading Bollywood star, Bachchan said, “I am extremely proud of this young man. I have seen his growth from early days when he used to remain in the background to now when he is in the forefront of Indian cinema. It is a remarkable journey and we are proud of you.”

Prominent among those present at the near packed theater were industrialists, Lord Swraj Paul, Kartar Lalvani, the founder chairman of the Vitabiotics, Britain’s largest vitamin producing company and President of the Hinduja Group, G P Hinduja.
