Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is known for sharing interesting unknown personal anecdotes on the show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' season 15, and now the thespian has revealed how he wished to join Air Force, but got rejected after few attempts.

The actor is currently seen as the host of the knowledge based reality show 바카라˜KBC 15바카라™.

In the episode 49 of the show, Jitendra Kumar from Ambala, Haryana, won the fastest finger first, and reached the hot seat.  

Talking to the contestant, Amitabh said: 바카라œFrom childhood.. Is this what you always aspired to do or something else?바카라

Replying to the 81-year-old actor, he said: 바카라œSir, I wanted to join the Air Force. I attempted the CDS and NDA exams quite a few times. My NDA SSB interview took place in Allahabad, but I could not clear it. I did not pass the CDS exam after many attempts either and felt quite demotivated.바카라Â 

The contestant continued saying, 바카라œSir, everyone has friends who talk about celebrities. Mine told me about you. He said, 바카라˜Amitabh Bachchan attempted the test바카라™. I wish to know if it's true, sir. Did you attempt the CDS and NDA exams?바카라Â 

The 바카라˜Zanjeer바카라™ fame actor said: 바카라œWhen I passed out from school. I didn't know what I should do. Right across from my house in Delhi - lived a Major General of the Army. I'd meet him often.바카라Â 

바카라œHe approached my father (Harivansh Rai Bachchan) one day, and told 바카라˜I want this lad. I'll ensure he becomes an Army Officer.바카라™ I thought I'd do that. I did attempt it, but it was futile,바카라 said Amitabh. 

The actor further said: 바카라œI wanted to join the Air Force too. We have so much in common. We both pursued BSc. We both aspired to join the Air Force. They rejected me on sight saying I had long legs.바카라Â 

Amitabh made his acting debut in 1969 with the movie 바카라˜Saat Hindustani바카라™, for which he had bagged the National Film Award for Best Newcomer.  

Meanwhile, the actor next has 바카라˜Ganapath바카라™, 바카라˜The Umesh Chronicles바카라™, 바카라˜Kalki 2898 AD바카라™, 바카라˜Butterfly바카라™, and 바카라˜Thalaivar 170바카라™ in the pipeline.
