Bollywood senior actor Amitabh Bachchan once reached the airport to intercept the flight of legendary singer Mohammad Rafi.
Amitabh Bachchan while giving an interview to senior Indian journalist Rajeev K Bajaj revealed that we had a show in Saligri and Muhammad Rafi Sahib was the center of attention, all of us artistes were also there together and we would go on stage one by one, introduce the program and then come down.
He said that it was a two-day show and Mohammad Rafi Sahib was supposed to perform on the first day and another singer was booked for the second day but that singer could not reach there for some reason.
Amitabh Bachchan said that I remember that we all rushed to the airport in a panic and covered several miles and found out that Mohammad Rafi was on the plane and the plane was getting ready to take off.
He said that we folded our hands and requested the ATC to allow us to go and talk to him for two minutes.
Amitabh Bachchan praised Rafi Sahib’s humility saying that he left his seat and got down from the plane without saying a word and performed the next day too and then went back.
