Can you guess who? In a tweet, the 74-year-old actor posted an old picture of himself with Ranbir Kapoor, accompanied by his sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahani and mother Neetu Kapoor, as veteran actor Shashi Kapoor looked on.

The Bachchans and Kapoors' friendship goes back a long way. Big B has shared screen space with Rishi Kapoor in films like Amar Akbar Anthony, Coolie, Naseeb and Ajooba. And now, the actor will reportedly work with the "wide-eyed little fellow", Ranbir Kapoor, in Ayan Mukerji's film Dragon. The film also stars Alia Bhatt. A source told news agency PTI, "He has given his nod for the film. It's a full-fledged role and not a guest appearance. It's an important role. He will begin shoot this year itself."

Meanwhile, here's the tweet of Big B with Vinod Khanna, setting out for a charity cricket match that had gone viral
