Reminiscing about his days at his hotel in Juhu, the chef went on to share that oftentimes the celebrities from the industry would stop by at his restaurant to enjoy delicacies. He added, "Sabse bada (adda tha). We have seen Dharmendra’s son’s wedding, we have seen awards, and we have seen Madhuri Dixit’s rise. She would come to the Chinese restaurant. We have seen all this. Full Bollywood used to be there.”

Further recalling a moment with the Piku actor, the chef went on to add, "Let me tell you something nice. We had an Indian restaurant, and Amitabh Bachchan used to come there. He would come with Jaya Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, and his daughter, Shweta.”

Harpal Sokhi continued to recall, “I still remember when Amitabh ji would eat, and if there was any food left on his son’s plate, he would scold him: ‘Abhishek! Finish what is there on your plate. The plate should be empty.’ He would say, ‘No, I’m full.’ His father would say, ‘Why did you take it?’ I remember this very clearly.”

While the chef did not reveal the time or the year that the incident took place, it surely gave the fans a glimpse of what values Bachchan has imposed on his kids, and they tend to stand by it to date.
