MUMBAI: During the shooting of ‘Department’, megastar Amitabh Bachchan offered to help South actor Rana Daggubati who was struggling with hindi.

Extremely fluent in spoken and written Hindi, the 69-year-old veteran asked Rana to narrate tough Hindi words and lines. Out of sheer respect, Rana made honest attempts to narrate the lines, but often failed. That only ended up giving him a chance to be tutored by the megastar himself.
