Amitabh Bachchan seeks help of industry experts to sign next film

Amitabh Bachchan wrote on his blog about the changing nature of film industry and how he is in talks with certain industry experts to sign his next film after Kalki 2898 AD and Section 84 IPC. He revealed that he is reading many scripts and ideas.

He recalled the conversations he has undertaken with trade experts as he wrote on the blog, “So been in the company of prospective script readings and hearing various ideas and thoughts to decide what to do next after Kalki 2898 AD, and Section 84 IPC. To fathom the conditions from market ‘bhujjes’, which in common parlance means the genius genies of the market condition personnel, who guide and give inputs on their reckoning what is doing well, what the cinema going audiences are liking or not liking etc. Agents, management experts and the lot who run their businesses on a professional level and make a living.”

He also reflected how such ‘facilities’ were not available in his times as he added, “Never ever had any of these facilities in my time. We just looked for the opportunity of another job, so we could survive the condition of running the home and have a living. Now, it is different. The next generation thinks and operates in this manner.”

The trailer of Kalki 2898 AD was released recently where Amitabh plays the role of Ashwatthama, who is an immortal character from mythology. The film, directed by Nag Aswin, also stars Deepika Padukone and Prabhas while Kamal Haasan makes a special appearance. It will be released in theatres on June 27.
