Picture this: Mika Singh, the swagger‑laden king of party anthems, walks onto a film set with a dream that the God of Cinema’s number might finally be in his pocket. He’s young, hair flowing, nerves buzzing whenever the legendary Amitabh Bachchan steps onto the set of Daler Mehndi’s “Na Na Na Na Re”.
The prank began when Daler, ever the mischievous co‑star, tells Mika that a huge spread of food is a gift from Jaya Bachchan herself. Fresh from Punjab and still finding his feet, Mika dives into the feast, convinced he’s basking in the glow of the icon’s kindness. The next day, the catering staff says, "It was just normal shoot food," and the laugh track in Mika’s mind swells.
Fast forward a few months: Mika’s songs start climbing the charts, his confidence surges, and he finds himself texting what he thinks is Amitabh’s number. He drops links to his latest bangers, hoping the legend will notice. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months—six whole months of waiting for a reply. Then, one dawn, a single word blinks on the screen: "Good." The shockwave hits him like a bass drop. He jumps, sings, and immediately rushes to Daler to brag.
But the comedy train rolls on. Daler offers to set up a call between the starry-eyed singer and Big B. Mika, convinced he’s finally on a live call with the legend, stops sending messages. When the phone rings, the voice on the other end is unmistakable—Amitabh himself. Yet the conversation is a joke: Daler reveals he’s been playing a second prank, turning the whole texting spree into a circus act.
The episode aired on the 18th season of Kaun Banega Crorepati, a moment that became instant folklore. It reminds us that fandom can be a wild rollercoaster, where the smallest prank can turn into a viral story. For Mika, the lesson is twofold: stay humble and never underestimate the power of a single word.
