Rishi Kapoor disclosed on Twitter that he will be
working with Amitabh Bachchan after a very long time. He posted, "Always a
pleasure and an honour to work with him. Started reading the script with the
team. For further details, stay tuned!!!"
Several started guessing for which movie they would be
teaming up. And again, Rishi tweeted yesterday, "Wonderful to work again
with the Legendary Amitabh Bachchan. Thank you Amitji, it never felt the 26
years old hiatus. We connected instantly!"
Now, as per a famous tabloid, the two legends are all set to
be seen in 102 Not Out as father and son. Yes, Big B will play 102-year old
father while Chintu Ji will be playing the role of his 75-year-old son.
The film is based on writer-director Saumya Joshi's
successful Gujarati play by the same name. The director of the movie Umesh
Shukla specified, "Amitji and Rishiji are collaborating after 26 years.
They are playing Gujarati characters for the first time. Being a Gujarati
myself, I had certain references in my mind which we used to create their
look."
The team has been shooting in Mumbai and will continue to do
so until the end of the month. Then, they will be resuming in the month of July
and are planning to wrap it by July-end. Umesh added, "I had produced the
original play and knew it could be turned into a film for its unique plot and
humour. Saumya has written the film brilliantly."
Amit Ji and Rishi will be seen talking a few lines in
Gujarati in the movie and have started working on their diction. Umesh
concluded by telling, "They are already good with the language and have a
tutor on the set to guide them. All of us are having a blast. Both are
extremely dedicated actors and have their own methods of working. We did a
three-four days workshop last month and it was so much fun!"
