AB’s first full-length English film
10/03/2007 12:39
Amitabh Bachchan is all set to do his first full-length English film titled ‘The Last Lear’. Through this film he wants to pay tribute to Utpal Dutt who essayed the same role in his play. And certainly this would be the fitting tribute to this great actor of Indian cinema. This tentatively titled film is based on Utpal Dutt's play ‘Aajker Shahjahan’ and will be directed by Rituparno Ghosh. Other than Big B, Preity Zinta, Divya Dutta, Shefali Shah and Arjun Rampal are also in pivotal role of the film. The film will be produced by Arindam Choudhuri.
Amitabh Bachchan started his career as a film actor with Utpal Dutt in Saat Hindustani in 1969 and he is also very attached to Bengal and its literature. He liked the experimental plays that Utpal Dutt directed. Also as Arindam Choudhuri says Amitabh Bachchan was the first choice for the role of Shakespeare's King Lear and his baritone and towering personality made him ideal for the role.
