    The "Swami" actor said that it was opportunity to learn from Big B's discipline. 
     
    "Amitabh Bachchan sir it was an honour to be in your company again. This is my fourth film with you. An opportunity to learn from your discipline. Thank you," Manoj tweeted on Wednesday. 
     
    The 73-year-old on Tuesday night had called Manoj "great".
     
    "'Sarkar 3' in unique settings, which cannot be disclosed. Dramatic, intense and so excitable. And the great Manoj Bajpayee!" Amitabh had tweeted, along with a photograph of himself with Manoj from the film's shoot. 
     
    The movie, helmed by maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, is the third instalment of the popular crime movie "Sarkar". The cine icon had played an integral part in the first two instalments of the film.
