Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says actress Waheeda Rehman, with whom he has paired up for hits like `Kabhi Kabhie` and `Trishul`, has been his `favourite` since the time he started watching cinema.

The cine icon went to add that the childlike innocence in her talks takes him back to the time when they `first met`.

`And then the lovely Waheeda Rehman, my favourite from the time I started seeing cinema...and her childlike mischievous banter, resonant from the time I met her 45 years ago, and then through films that I did with her...'Reshma Shera', 'Kabhi Kabhie' and 'Adalat' and 'Trishul' and so many other,` Big B shared on his official blog.

Along with a string of photographs with Waheeda, Amitabh shared: `Still with Waheeda ji and sharing a little personal moment, which harps on the presence of some guests and their...well ... never mind!`


The actor met the star of ageless classics such as `Guide` and `Kaagaz Ke Phool` at a book launch event here.

The `Piku` star also was engrossed in a conversation with Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who is producing his forthcoming film `Wazir`.

`Vidhu Vinod Chopra and his continued connect with his films even in the most non film like environ... showing me the publicity material for 'Wazir',` he added.

The film, which also stars Farhan Akhtar, will be hitting the Indian screens on December 4.
