Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he admires the "spontaneity" of Bollywood's funny man Cyrus Broacha and lauds him for spreading smiles.
The 73-year-old cine icon expressed his views about Cyrus, who excels in making people laugh with his one-liners and comic timings, on his blog.
"When there is a Cyrus Broacha at the helm of it all along with his dear friend Kunal, for the ninth year celebration for the... whatchamacallit show that they do... it is expected to be mad.
"Madness is good for the mind and body... more body. But matching professionals at this range of timing and content is not difficult, it's impossible," Big B shared.
The "Piku" actor added: "Really sweet of the wife Ayesha and the kid to pose with their father, Cyrus the Terrible and moi, but he has been a great admirer and the feelings are mutual."
Amitabh even came up with a name for Cyrus.
"It is impossible to manufacture what he does spontaneously but he does. Maybe, he should have been nicknamed 'Sponteous" as in perhaps 'Pontius'... you know the one 'Pontius Pilate' who betrayed or something," the actor posted.
