Such a simple human being.” Big B also spoke about their flight encounter with each other. He added, “Once, we both happened to be on the same flight. We landed at Heathrow Airport, and the people who were supposed to pick him up must have left by then. I saw him standing there, and he went to a phone booth to make a call.”
