Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan's first look is out. From the picture tweeted by film trade analyst Taran Adarsh, it looks like the Shoojit Sircar directorial will have Amitabh play an old bespectacled Muslim man with a big nose.
The 76-year-old has just wrapped up shooting for the thriller "Chehre", which also features Emraan Hashmi.
"Gulabo Sitabo", which also stars Ayushmann Khurrana, will release on April 24, 2020. This is the first time Ayushmann will be seen sharing the screen with the cine icon.
In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Shoojit talked about the movie and explained that Gulabo Sitabo are popular glove-puppet characters in Uttar Pradesh. He said, "In the story, which borrows its title from their names, Sitabo is the worn-out, overworked wife of a man, while Gulabo is his enticing mistress. It is peppered with local humour and songs that depict the nuances of daily life."
Big B took to social media to reveal his unique avatar from the film. His fans cannot stop raving about his new look after he put it out on his blog.
A few days ago, Bachchan gave some updates on this movie as he tweeted, "One done another begun (sic). Travel, location change, look change, crew change, colleagues change, city change and story change. From Lucknow today 'Gulabo Sitabo' and the look? Well, what can I say."
