Guess who Sr Bachchan’s Godfather is?

He knew how to say the ‘simplest of the stories’ in the most exciting manner and his sense of budget was exceptional too, says Amitabh Bachchan remembering Hrishikesh Mukherjee. ‘It is today (Tuesday) the birth anniversary of my godfather in the industry, Hrishikesh Mukherjee, a master and a genius in his own way. His mastery over the middle-of-the-road cinema has still to be replicated. He knew how to say the simplest of the stories in the most exciting and attractive manner,’ he said.
