KBC 18: Ajmal Kasab claimed he came to Mumbai to meet Amitabh Bachchan, reveals Ujjwal Nikam

KBC 18: Ajmal Kasab claimed he came to Mumbai to meet Amitabh Bachchan, reveals Ujjwal Nikam

Amitabh Bachchan expressed strong reaction after hearing Ajmal Kasab's claim from public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam that he came to Mumbai to meet the Big B during the 26/11 terror attack trial. In a recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18 (KBC 18), former host Bachchan joked, "Wahi hum goli maar dete use," in response to the claim.

The actor questioned prosecutor Nikam about the four-year delay in Kasab's execution, to which Nikam recalled the first time he met Kasab in court. Kasab allegedly looked at Nikam with a smirk, while Nikam stared back at him. During the trial, Kasab claimed to have mistaken Nikam for someone he wanted to meet and that he had come to Mumbai to see Amitabh.

This statement led to Bachchan's playful retort about not wanting Kasab to leave their home. The prosecutor also detailed other claims Kasab made, like being a minor or that RAW had arrested him, which created additional legal issues. Prosecutors ultimately proved their case with CCTV footage and other evidence, despite Kasab's attempts to mislead investigators and the court.
