Who do you want to see share screen space with Big B?

05 March, 2013

Amitabh Bachchan would be seen with Shahrukh Khan first time after Bhootnath in upcoming R Balki film. The film is being scripted at the moment when people would love to see both the actors of Bollywood together, as they have produced massive hits in the form of Mohabbatein and Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Both the actors, who are brands in their own right, have their own fan base. Against this backdrop, I asked some Bachchan fans who they want to see their favourite star with?

The yesteryear angry young man, who at one point in his career was known as a one-man-industry, loves to experiment and does various cameo roles such as Paa and English Vinglish. Although, he doesn't anymore play the protagonist, yet it was in Balki's last film where we saw him as the older chef falling in love with a much younger Tabu. Thus Balki paired up too very unconventional actors together and gave us a wonderful film.

When asked whom she wants to see with Bachchan, Divya Juyal, big film buff and Bachchan fan, said, “Ayushmann Khurana did a wonderful work in Vicky Donor. To see him with Big B would be a real treat. It would be the culmination of experience with raw energy and I am sure we would have a great Filmfare worthy film.”

Alekhya Bolla wanted Nagarjuna and Amitabh Bachchan together, quite understandable from her South Indian connect. While in his earlier years, AB worked with South superstar Rajnikanth but Nagarjuna was never seen with the master himself, except for a Kalyan Jewellers advertisement. Talking about it, she said, “They are the best in their own film industries and it would be great to see the tall actors sharing same screen in some serious, message oriented film. I am especially hooked after the Kalyan Jewellers ad., where they look amazing together.”

Big on perfection, Ashim Sunam wants to see Aamir Khan with Big B. Giving a valid reason for his desire, he said, “I would love to see Aamir Khan alongside AB, as they are two of the best actors that are genuinely respected all over the country for their contribution to Indian cinema. I am assuming but I feel that their screen work should be excellent for the sheer reason of the perfection they want to achieve in their roles.”

A theater enthusiast, Rajat Bhatia added, “It depends on the script and story. If the script is too serious and demands intense emotions then Aamir and Hrithik will work wonderfully, and if the story is light or humorous then I would like to see Ranbir Karoor with Big B.”

Being a Bengali and an ardent Soumitra Chatterjee fan, I would want an intense dialogue oriented film so that we get to see and hear both the actors and their famous baritones opposite each other, sharing the same big screen.
