R. Balki is one filmmaker who just can’t get enough of Amitabh Bachchan. All his films have been centred around the Big B. Even Ki & Ka, which had Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead, had Mr Bachchan in an unforgettable cameo.
Now we hear that Balki is working on another project and this one too will topline Big B. A source tells us, “Balki is working on a very emotional subject and it is different from what he has made in the past. The idea was shared with Big B and he has tentatively given a go-ahead.
Mr Bachchan has many commitments and he will allot the dates accordingly. However, he is still to hear the final script and Balki will start work on it soon.”
The film may have many actors in it but we hear Tabu may also be attached to the project. So will there be a repeat of the Cheeni Kum magic? A source revealed, “For this specific role in question, many senior actresses have shown interest. But Tabu may end up doing it. If that happens, Tabu and Amitabh will share screen space again for the first time after Cheeni Kum.”
