Sharing the picture, Zeenat walked down the memory lane and revealed a story about Amitabh Bachchan when the latter reached late on the sets of one of their films. Zeenat shared that she reached the film set early as she had a morning shift. However, it was Big B for whom she and other members had to wait for an hour. Talking about the same, Zeenat stated:

"Upon my arrival I went directly to my makeup room, and informed the crew to send me a message once Mr. Bachchan was ready for the shot. Our “roll time” came and went, but there was no sign of Mr. Bachchan. 30 minutes passed. Then 45. An entire hour went by before there was a knock on the door. An AD informed me the Mr. Bachchan had arrived. And that he’d run straight from his car to the set!"

After she went on the set from the makeup room, the drunk director of that film started abusing her as he thought it was Zeenat who was late, not Amitabh.

"I immediately leapt up and made my way downstairs. I had just about stepped foot on set when from across the room the director let loose a torrent of abuse! He was absolutely catatonic, and under the impression that it was I who had held up production. The cast and crew stood in stunned silence as this director ranted and raved at me. I couldn’t get a word in edgeways, and tears of indignation rushed to my eyes."
