"Jeff Bezos ko pakdana mushkil hi nahi impossible hai," Bezos finally said. During the conversation, Bezos also revealed that he had "begged" for a role in "Star Trek" movies for a really long time and his wish was finally fulfilled with the 2016 movie "Star Trek Beyond". 

"I got that role by literally begging... For years, I would go to them when they were making a new 'Star Trek' film. And I would say,  'I would like to be in the film' and they would say no. I just kept after it," he said. The billionaire had appeared as a Starfleet official in the Justin Lin-directed sci-fi movie.

Film stars Kamal Haasan, Vidya Balan and her producer-husband Sidharth Roy Kapoor, Farhan Akhtar, Richa Chadha, Ali Fazal, Ritesh Deshmukh and wife Genelia, Pankaj Tripathi and Vivek Oberoi were among those who turned up for the event.
