Amitabh Bachchan recently shared an amusing yet memorable story of his first meeting with the legendary pop star Michael Jackson during an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati season 16.
Bachchan recalled how, while staying at a hotel in New York, he opened his door to find none other than Michael Jackson standing outside. The Bollywood icon was so starstruck that he nearly fainted upon seeing Jackson in person.

Bachchan recounted how Jackson had knocked on his door by mistake, asking if it was his room. After realizing the error, Jackson left but later sent a message inviting Bachchan for a conversation. The two spent time talking, and Bachchan praised Jackson for being “incredibly humble and kind” despite his global fame.
Bachchan’s story highlights how even legendary stars can be in awe of one another. Michael Jackson passed away in 2009, but his influence and music remain timeless.
