Mumbai : Amitabh Bachchan once again prompted his famous dialogue 'English is a funny language' from the film ‘Namak Haram’ as he shared a post on Instagram about how several English words hold different meanings.

Big B’s ‘Brahmastra’ co-star Mouni Roy shared a laughing emoji in reaction to the post. A fan commented, “You made it easy in the movie Namak Haram for atleast for layman’s of that era!!!” 

Sharing on Twitter Big B wrote, "Just look at the efficacy of the Hindi language: (In English) I am sorry, I can not hear you properly, can you please repeat what is the matter ?

Mr Bachchan is currently at home after he tested negative for the novel coronavirus and was discharged from the hospital earlier this month.

Asking his fans to refrain from the blame attitude, he said, “can we reduce the number of messages at all the possible 200 thousand sites that come to me .. particularly because they all carry the same message.”
