Koffee With Karan 7: Why Tiger Shroff called Rekha Amitabh’s mother!
Koffee With Karan 7: Tiger Shroff made a guess about veteran actors Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha when he appeared on the chat show Koffee With Karan season 7. In the new episode of the show hosted by filmmaker Karan Johar, Tiger and actor Kriti Sanon were the guests.
During a quiz segment at the end of the episode, Karan asked Kriti and Tiger Shroff, “Name any actor who played Amitabh Bachchan’s boyfriend and mother?” As Kriti replied, “Yeah, I’m not very sure”, Tiger pressed the buzzer and replied uncertainly, “Rekha ma’am?” Shocked, Karan looked at Tiger and asked, “What?”

As Tiger took a step back, Karan held his chest and laughed and said, “No”. He then stumbled and continued, “No. She never played her mother. Waheeda Rehman who played her lover and her mother, as Rakhi did, as Sharmila Tagore did.” Tiger then said, “I was thinking so.” Karan again asked, “Okay, were you thinking like that?”
