Mumbai: The highly anticipated trailer of Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Shamitabh was unveiled at a grand red carpet event held on Tuesday.
While the makers have brilliantly managed to keep the plot under wraps, it was known that the film would also feature Rekha. A lot has been written about Amitabh and Rekha over the years but the talk still refuses to die down.
Amitabh said, however, that he isn’t sharing screen space with Rekha. “We don’t actually come together, it’s part of the sequence. When you see the film, you will understand how it’s portrayed. But, yes having such great luminaries in the film is always welcome,” he said.
Ask him if we will see both of them in a film together, the actor replies, “Balki keeps saying he wants to design a film with us and if somebody comes along with an interesting script... then why not?”
Shamitabh, which also stars Dhanush, has Akshara Haasan making her Bollywood debut. In 1985, Amitabh starred with Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan in Geraftaar. Now 30 years later, he will be sharing screen space with the next generation. Amitabh commented, “It’s difficult to compare the two as they (Dhanush and Akshara) have created their own legacy.”
