" Tonight I make a special guest appearance on @Desi Rascals, 8pm on @SkyLivingHD #DesiRascals" …quite a unique concept .. !!— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) January 30, 2015
Bachchan has been seen around town in London and Dubai to promote his latest film, Shamitabh. Written and directed by R Balki, the Hindi film will be shown in UK cinemas from February 6, 2015.
Commenting on Shamitabh, Big B said: “It’s a story of two individuals who have different exceptional qualities and what happens when they come together. I give my voice to the character of Dhanush… an aspect of the film which was a first for me.”
The 72-year-old superstar enjoyed working with Balki and complimented the director’s creative approach. He said:
“Balki has a very intellectual, sensitive mind. He thinks differently and has always made stories that have not been the regular escapist fare that you see in Hindi cinema.
“And I can say with certain amount of confidence that this is a plot that has never been seen before at least in Indian cinema, even may be true for cinema worldwide.”
Bachchan has truly become a globally recognised name after his film debut in Hollywood film The Great Gatsby (2013).
He played a businessman and mob boss Meyer Wolfsheim in the hugely successful musical drama, which starred Titanic heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio and received numerous award nominations.
Desi Rascals continues to deliver adrenaline-rushed entertainment, while unfolding the complexities of modern relationships. There is no better way to get to know such a huge and interesting ethnic community. The only way is Desi Rascals now.
