Amitabh Bachchan Says No To The Role Of A Pakistani
Amitabh Bachchan is known to be the most popular star in the history of India’s cinema, known primarily for his roles in action films. Bachchan had appeared in more than 35 films and was regarded as India’s top film star.
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who is currently busy shooting for his Hindi-Tamil bilingual film, Tera Yaar Hoon Main starring actors SJ Suryah and Baahubali fame actor Ramya Krishnan, was all set to play a Pakistani protagonist in Oscar-winning sound designer Resul Pookutty’s directorial debut.
But then things worsened between the two countries and Mr Bachchan decided to quietly leave the project.
A source reveals in the know, “Resul had been discussing the script for his directorial debut with Bachchan Saab for two years now. Bachchan Saab loved the peace message in Resul’s Indo-Pak story. Resul waited for Bachchan Saab’s dates and they were finally supposed to go on the floors, when because of the worsening relations between the two countries Bachchan Saab had second thoughts.”
