How Faisal Malik's honesty to Amitabh Bachchan cost him his job
In a throwback interview during the rounds, the actor who has become everyone's favourite after the show's release, revealed how he met his favourite superstar for the first time with Anurag Kashyap. For the unversed, Malik and Kashyap had together started a production company. "I was half excited because I was getting to meet Bachchan sahab. As soon as I saw him, I thought to hell with the work and I presented my copy to him for an autograph," he told The Lallantop.

Kashyap and Malik had gone to Big B's place to meet him for a project
"The food kept coming at Big B¡¯s house. You wouldn¡¯t be able to finish one dish before they present a new one," he said praising the hospitality and added, "I told him I am from Allahabad and he talked to me. Then he asked if I would have 'Til Ke Laddu' (sesame laddus). I thought he won¡¯t be able to eat them because of his age. Sorry, I shouldn't say this. But when the laddus arrived, he ate two before me. I thought he was lying about his age; he is still very much young," he added.?
Then, the script narration began. The person who was narrating the script, Malik said, was pretty overconfident. Amitabh who remembered 120 pages of the script then pointed out an error on Page 62 without even taking a look at it. After the narration was over Bachchan asked him when should they shoot this, to which he honestly responded that they should shoot this after six months. After they left, Faisal Malik was told, "You don¡¯t work on this project. You leave it," because "I spoke the truth."
