Watch: Is Liverpool Amitabh Bachchan’s favourite team?
The superstar actor wore a Liverpool flag on a chat show
Mumbai: It’s well-known fact that the Bachchan family loves sports; be it cricket, kabaddi or football. While Abhishek Bachchan’s love for the beautiful game is already known with him buying a football team in the recently concluded Indian Super League, his father, superstar Amitabh Bachchan too is passionate about the game. And like his son, he too is a Chelsea fan.
However, the senior Bachchan was gifted with a Liverpool flag by presenter Noreen Khan during the chat show on BBC Asian Network.
“@bbcasiannetwork: Check out the cheeky gift @DJNoreenKhan gave to @SrBachchan @LFC @ChelseaFC #YNWA pic.twitter.com/DCkFGu4R0a” yes I did it!!

— Noreen Khan (@DJNoreenKhan) January 27, 2015Although Mr. Bachchan was reluctant to change his loyalty and choose a rival club even for a moment, he was gracious throughout the entire situation as he hugged the chat show host.
