in Mumbai on Monday afternoon and he wants his fans to know why.
The veteran actor on Monday took to Instagram to share a trivia moment about the current shoot site which has an amazing link with his 1975 blockbuster movie, Deewar.

it is the same location where the iconic scene from Deewar, where his brother
Ravi Verma( played by actor Shashi Tharoor) shoots Amitabh Bachchan (who played
the angry young gangster Vijay Verma in the movie), was shot.
“Deewar 1975 .. Mayday 2021 .. looking back in time .. the same corridor .. the same location .. so many film shoots here of several films of mine .. but today .. this came up,” Amitabh captioned the post.
