Amitabh Bachchan: Shamitabh is out of ordinary and challenging

Amitabh Bachchan and R. Balki had a fruitful association in unique love storyCheeni Kum and Paa, a film on progeria. Now they have teamed up for Shamitabhand the megastar says that like their previous projects this one too is out of the ordinary and challenging.

“Each one of Balki’s films with me have been novel, out of the ordinary and most challenging. Shamitabh is no different,” said Big B when asked about how different is the experience of working with Balki in Shamitabh.

Currently they are shooting in Europe and the 71-year-old said that the experience so far has been exhilarating.

When asked if it is a coincidence that the film’s title Shamitabh is very close to his own name, he said: “I do not have the liberty or the permission to reveal that yet, but on seeing the film there shall be greater clarity.”

Shamitabh also marks the debut of Kamal Haasan and Sarika’s daughter Akshara in filmdom. Southern star Dhanush, who is a big fan of Amitabh Bachchan, too features in it.

This will be his second Hindi film after the hit Raanjhanaa and Big B describes his young co-star as an exceptional artist.
