Balki directed Bachchan in 'Cheeni Kum', 'Paa' and 'Shamitabh'. In his upcoming film 'Ki and Ka', Bachchan and his actress wife Jaya make a special appearance.

"I don't think he will be very happy about it (calling him lucky mascot). He is not a mascot he is Amitabh Bachchan. He is country's greatest actor," Balki replied to a poser at the trailer launch of 'Ki and Ka'.

Balki also did not wish to talk about the guest roles of the Bollywood's veteran star couple in the Kareena Kapoor-Arjun Kapoor starrer.

"There is special appearance of him and Jaya. I don't want to talk about it... The essence of what we want to say is in this film is there in that scene," Balki said.

The romantic-comedy will release on April 1.
