It's been a decade since the release of "Paheli" -- and its lead actor Shah Rukh Khan has thanked megastar Amitabh Bachchan for agreeing to do a cameo in it.

While Amitabh took to micro-blogging website Twitter to share: "10th Anniversary of 'Paheli' a guest appearance in SRK film", Shah Rukh thanked the "Piku" star for being part of the film.

SRK wrote: "@SrBachchan will never be able to thank u enough for all the time u took out from ur extremely busy schedule to come & shoot for the film."

The fanatasy film, directed by Amol Palekar, was India's official entry for the Academy Award's Best Foreign Language Film category. It also stars Juhi Chawla, Rani Mukerji, Anupam Kher, Suniel Shetty and Rajpal Yadav.
