He has also given the example of Amitabh Bachchan while explaining the difference between these two eras. In the interview, Nikhil Advani was asked about the old and current era of the film industry.

On this occasion, Nikhil Advani narrated an anecdote of Amitabh Bachchan. He said, “During my film career, I initially worked with ‘Yash Raj Films’. At that time, Yash Chopra offered Amitabh Bachchan to work in the film Silsila. He asked how much money he wanted as remuneration. At that time, Amitabh wanted to buy a house for me. Amitabh Bachchan told Yash Chopra to give me a good amount.” Nikhil Advani further said, “After a few years, Yash Chopra approached Amitabh Bachchan for ‘Mohabbatein’. He also asked how much money he would take this time. However, Amitabh Bachchan said that now I will take only one rupee after paying the amount demanded while buying the house.” Nikhil Advani said, “Earlier, films did not depend on money, but on the strength of people’s hearts and relationships. Nowadays, everything depends on money. Money comes first and then who will work and who will not.” He also refreshed the memories of the films ‘Dilwale Dulhania’ and ‘Mohabbatein’. Pam Aunty (Pamela Chopra) would always cook for us. She would ask everyone’s preferences. Nikhil Advani also said that the films ‘Dilwale Dulhania’ and ‘Mohabbatein’ were also made in a similar way.
