The actor is joined by Rishi Kapoor in 102 Not Out; the two reuniting onscreen after 27 years. Speaking to Indian Express, Bachchan said that it was "glorious" working with Kapoor.

"It was as glorious, as it was all those past years and the historic films we did together. It’s not like we were separated at birth and were meeting after 27 years."
