Remembering Smita Patil on her 31st death anniversary, megastar Amitabh Bachchan? got nostalgic.
Taking to Twitter, senior Bachchan, who has had fond professional association with actress Patil, shared that the actress had a bad dream about him a day before he met with a major accident on the sets of his 1983 hit 'Coolie'.
He tweeted, "She [Smita Patil] had a premonition of my Coolie accident a night before it happened .. called and told me of it".
