Let's see what happens to Shahrukh in 35 years: Amitabh

New Delhi: "Let's see what happens to him after 35 years," was actor Amitabh Bachchan's reply to Shahrukh Khan's provocative posers that his time was over and he was old.

"Whatever he says is correct. I am old and he is young and I agree that he is smart and sexy," Mr. Bachchan said. For good effect, he added that he was "sexy Sam," the character he had portrayed in the hit film Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. But Mr. Bachchan accepted that Mr. Khan was the "reigning king of Bollywood".

Mr. Khan, who recently replaced Mr. Bachchan as host of the TV game show Kaun Banega Crorepati, had said, "I am sexy, smart and young, that was his century, this is mine."

While the two Bollywood actors appear to be engaged in a clash of the titans, Mr. Bachchan told Times Now channel that all the hype about the competition between them was just a creation of the media.

"It makes good copy so you people keep writing about it," he said.

Mr. Khan, said, "I have never imitated anyone. I am quite good at what I do."

Mr. Bachchan recently said he wanted to do more good work so that people could imitate him. - PTI
