Amitabh Bachchan once playfully teased actress Deepika Padukone about her eating habits on 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', the shows' hosts revealed on Sunday, 11 October. Big B said, 'Normally, a person has three meals in a day – breakfast, lunch and dinner. I have experienced that she eats every three minutes.' He added that she never asked him if he wanted some. Deepika countered with her version, saying Bachchan would repeatedly ask her what she was eating whenever she opened her lunch box.

Filmmaker Farah Khan, also present on the show, joined the exchange, saying her professional association with Deepika worked because she brought food for the actress from home. The conversation then turned to biryani, with Bachchan jokingly complaining that Farah had never shared her homemade biryani. Farah explained that biryani was not prepared for vegetarians at her home. Deepika made her Bollywood debut in Farah Khan's 'Om Shanti Om' and later starred with Bachchan in the film 'Piku'.
