During a light-hearted conversation with Shravani, Big B will share a heartwarming story about his struggles with online shopping. He humorously admitted, "You all may have mastered online shopping, but I still haven’t quite figured it out. Many people have tried to teach me, but I just don’t get it." He continued, "You know that code that comes to your phone when you need to provide it for delivery? The OTP. Well, I was told not to give my number, or else it would become a hassle. It became quite a challenge whenever I wanted to order something, so I gave my house help’s number instead. Funny enough, he's even taught me how to shop online! He knows that when I return home after a shoot, it’s usually around midnight. If I want to buy something at that time, what can I do? The phone is with him, and the OTP would go to his phone. So now, he leaves his phone in a box at my place, just in case I need to provide an OTP!"
With a laugh, Mr Bachchan added, "Slowly, I’m beginning to understand online shopping, but I haven’t quite mastered it yet. And to this day, I haven’t used that phone because I haven’t bought anything! Then there’s the other thing—the cart. They tell you to 'fill the cart.' Now, where am I supposed to fill it from? All of this is still very confusing to me. It’s much easier to just go to a shop and tell the shopkeeper, ‘Please give me this.’"
