“The idea is not to create a splash among the media, or to create credible content for them, or for the subsequent promotion of the show #AKRHZ... the idea is to let him know that he is not alone...that he is appreciated... that our support runs even after he departs from the show,” he wrote.

Big B’s appearance came as a “surprise” for Nimbkar and for those who “travel daily” on the local train as the whole exercise was “executed without his knowledge”.
