It is every artist’s dream to work with megastar Amitabh Bachchan but before he became the Bollywood’s Shahenshah, Big B like many others was a struggling actor.

Sharing an old picture of his from his struggling days on Twitter, Big B revealed that this was the photograph that led to his rejection from a talent hunt.
