Mahanayak Uttam Kumar did not get the same box office success in Hindi films. His Hindi film Chhoti Si Mulaqat was a flop. However, many years later, Uttam Kumar also shot another Hindi film. The film was called Desh Premee. Amitabh Bachchan was seen with Uttam in the movie, which was released in 1982. But the great hero left this world before it. In fact, he could not complete the entire shooting of this film.




Amitabh first met the superstar at the premiere of the film 'Desh Premee'. Uttam’s son Gautam was there too. As soon as Big B saw Mahanayak Uttam, he touched his feet. The two of them got totally caught up in conversation and pretty much lost track of time. But, just as the shoot kicked off, something totally unexpected happened.


What Happened Between The Two?


At that time, this news was first published in an entertainment magazine. It is known that on the first day of shooting of the film 'Desh Premee', Mahanayak reached the shooting floor at exactly the right time and prepared himself. But after about 2 hours, Amitabh came to the shooting floor. Uttam was a little annoyed by Amitabh's behavior.


Then the shooting started. Amitabh and Uttam came in front of the camera. When director Manmohan Desai said action, Uttam said the dialogue, but Amitabh got stuck. That day, the same scene was retaken many times due to Amitabh's mistake. At this time, Uttam's annoyance increased. Uttam left the floor and went straight to the makeup room. It is known that Big B appeared in the makeup room to apologize to Uttam.


There, he held Uttam's feet and apologized, saying, 'Forgive me. I can't be such a big actor like you. So that I got nervous being in front of you.' Hearing Amitabh's words, Uttam just pulled him in and gave a warm hug. After that, things felt right. But here’s the bittersweet part, Uttam never got to watch this movie. It came out in ’82, but he’d already left us two years before. Honestly, everyone still misses him so much.
