Amitabh Bachchan, 74, has a pretty packed schedule as he shoots for films like 102 Not Out (with Rishi Kapoor) and Yash Raj Film’s Thugs of Hindostan (with Aamir Khan). He also has the new season of Kaun Banega Crorepati and several ad commitments.

Understandably, Big B barely gets time to rest. So when given a chance to act like he was asleep on sets of a film, Amitabh admitted on his blog that he actually fell asleep!

The actor wrote about the incident on his blog.

Sleep... that mechanism that has been a constant in us all... like taking in air to breathe and survive... and the opportunity of catching up with its loss, on set is a gifted moment in the script... rare... but so welcome... one actually goes to sleep, while the lighting and the action and the scene is being conducted... such a delight...

Now, wouldn’t you want a job like that!
