Patil highlighted that Bachchan's stature as a global icon is matched by his work ethic and personal discipline. "He is not just a legend in every sense, but also someone whose discipline, grace, and commitment to excellence are truly unparalleled," she said, adding that his attention to detail stands out even after decades in the industry.
"What stands out most is his incredible attention to detail and the respect he brings to every aspect of his craft," she said. She noted that his passion for his work has remained unchanged over the years. "Even after decades of iconic work, his passion and dedication remain unwavering, which is deeply inspiring."
Patil said being responsible for styling Bachchan has influenced her own design philosophy. "Being part of his journey, even in a small way, has shaped my own approach as a designer," she said.

Over the years, Bachchan's appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati has also been credited with setting several fashion trends, from tailored bandhgalas to classic accessories. Patil believes Bachchan's influence on style goes beyond clothing choices. "Amitabh Bachchan is a legend. There has never been, and never will be, anyone like him," she said.
She described his energy and presence as unmatched and said his fashion impact comes naturally. "His energy is unmatchable. He is undeniably a trendsetter," Patil said, explaining that his personality elevates whatever he wears. "His presence and personality elevate everything he wears."
Patil also stressed that Bachchan's style influence is rooted in who he is rather than what he wears. "I strongly believe that clothes do not make the man; the man makes the clothes, and in his case, that holds completely true," she said. According to her, Bachchan's impact on fashion has been consistent and effortless. "His influence on fashion is effortless yet profound."
