Jeet, happy with the way the Bollywood Sahenshah had tweeted in favour of the film's title track Bachchan , recalls how he was received by Amitabh during a trip to his Juhu residence.
"At that time, there was no plan to make a film sharing his name but he saw stills and shots of some of my works with interest and praised the same. He even tweeted on that night. Bachchan happened much afterwards which was a Raja Chanda idea and I play myself in the sense that I am a Big B fan on screen and in real life," Jeet told PTI here.
"We are humbled with Mr Bachchan praising the music and even tweeting about that. We would love to invite him for a special screening of the film after September 26 release," Jeet said.
"He has changed and evolved as an actor over the years and that is the most elevating part for any actor," Jeet continued in his effusivre praise for the Deewar actor.
