The high-speed juggernaut named Amitabh Bachchan refuses to slow down. In fact, Mr Bachchan is now busier than ever.
He reveals in this exclusive interview that he would be doing as many as five new feature films in the coming months. As soon as he wrapps up his work in Vijay Krishna Acharya’s Thugs Of Hindostan, Mr Bachchan will plunge into Sairat director Nagraj Manjule’s next film.
Revealing his chock-a-block schedule Mr Bachchan says,
Umesh Shukla’s 102 Not Out is over. I am now shooting for Kaun Banega Crorepati for the entire month of August. Then in September, I will return to Thugs Of Hindostan. In October I will be shooting for Nagraj Manjule’s film. After that I go into Ayan Mukejee’s film (Dragon) to be produced by Karan Johar. Then I am doing a film with Kabir Khan, R Balki and Shoojit Sircar.Amitabh Bachchan, Actor
Clearly, Amitabh Bachchan is in no mood to slow down.
It’s all about time management. And please don’t ask me to slow down. I am not here to conquer peaks or design a formula for success. I am here to do a job. I need to work, I like to work and I am fortunate that there are some that consider me for work. In time nature shall diminish me and my body. But until it does so, I wish to continue. You got a problem with that?Amitabh Bachchan
Not at all sir! Keep ‘em coming.
