Dilip Kumar himself narrated this incident.
At his peak, the star was travelling by plane. The passenger sitting next was elderly. Dressed in a very simple shirt and pant, his apparel projected a middle class. He appeared well educated.
Passengers on the aircraft snatched glances of the renowned Dilip Kumar. Yet, the gentleman appeared unconcerned. He read his newspaper, then looked out of the window.
When tea came, he sipped it without any notice of Dilip Kumar who sat with him.
It made Dilip Kumar uneasy.
Trying to strike a conversation, he smiled.
The courteous man smiled back and said hello.
Dilip somehow brought the subject to films and asked,
"Do you watch films?"
The man replied,
"Oh, very few. I did see one many years ago"
Dilip casually mentioned that he himself worked in films.
Man; "Oh, that's nice. What do you do?"
Dilip Kumar; "I am a film actor"
Man; "Oh, wonderful?"
There was no further response.
When the flight landed and both stood up, Dilip Kumar held out his hand,
"It was good to travel with you. By the way, my name is Dilip Kumar"
The man shook hand and smiled,
"Thank you. I am J.R.D. Tata"
👌👌👌👌👌
For all who think that he is big, there is always someone bigger....
Be humble...
It costs nothing
