What Led to the Apology?

In the video, he said, “Namaskaar Main Amitaabh Bachchan Hoon, Mee Kachara Karanaar Nahin” However, when he delivered the message in Marathi, a local language of Maharashtra, he mispronounced the word “kachcha” (garbage). This error was pointed out to him by his friend and famous voice artist Sudesh Bhosle
