Agastya Nanda says he didn't know for years how famous grandfather Amitabh Bachchan was
Agastya Nanda, the grandson of megastar Amitabh Bachchan, revealed in a new interview he was unaware for years about the popularity of his "nanu."
Agastya Nanda, who made his debut last month with Zoya Akhtar's coming-of-age period film The Archies on Netflix India, confessed he was unaware for years how famous his grandfather Amitabh Bachchan was. In an interview with Film Companion, he recalled getting an inkling about his nanu's popularity only when the megastar visited his school in Delhi.

What Agastya said
“The way my family has been, they don't bring work home. Like my nana never spoke about work at home. So I found it very normal. I thought like okay, he's a normal granddad but I only realised when he came to school on annual day that oh god, he is someone. It was so normal up till then. (We had) grandparents day in school in Delhi. When he'd show up, everyone would go crazy and I was like I just don't get this, why is everyone going crazy. That's when I realised. And then of course, when I started watching cinema, I was like okay, he's kind of good at this,” said Agastya in the interview.
