Superstar Amitabh Bachchan has made an impassioned plea on social media for his unreleased film Shoebite. Directed by Shoojit Sircar, the film embroiled in a legal battle between production houses, is about an old man’s journey of self-discovery.
Another formidable name attached with the film is that of Gulzaar, who has penned the lyrics.
In a recent interview with indianexpress.com, Shoojit Sircar admitted that he would do anything to have his second film Shoebite released on the big screen. He went on to say that he is even ready to sell his house.
Two of Amitabh’s much-awaited projects in the works are - Thugs of Hindostan and 102 Not Out, a father-son film, where the star shares screen space with Rishi Kapoor.
