Talking about working with Ranbir Kapoor in Brahmastra, Big B said, "I haven't shot with Ranbir yet for Brahmastra. But I have worked with him when he was an Assistant Director on Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black. He was the one who trained the little girl Ayesha Kapur, who played a differently-abled child. In between shots, I would see him train her, it was impressive."

Isn't that adorable?

Talking about 102 Not Out he said, "I believe if you are appreciating my performance, it is due to my co-artistes. If they don't perform well enough for your reaction, then your reaction would go wrong. So I would like to compliment Rishiji and Jimit for this film. Whenever you see (a movie), if you like it or don't like it, it depends on their performance too. Our performances are the reflection of their performances."

Big B is working with Rishi Kapoor after 27 years. Dwelling on the collaboration, Rishi said, "It’s always good. We’ve done so many iconic films (Amar Akbar Anthony, Naseeb and Coolie, etc) together. It’s not as though he was ever out of sight or out of mind. The two of us have been around in the industry, he’s also a member of the family now. My daughter (Shweta Bachchan Nanda) is married into his (Kapoor-Nanda) family. So, it’s not like a lost-and-found story. It isn’t as if we just met after 27 years. He’s an accomplished artiste; the choice of him playing the other role was good. Working with him is always a joy."

102 Not Out, directed by Umesh Shukla, will release on May 4.
