R Balki who is an unabashed Amitabh Bachchan fan says he is more than willing to make the Bachchan bio-pic.
“But who will play the Big B? You tell me! There is not a single actor in this country who would dare to step into those Size 8 shoes.I would love to make the bio-pic. But there is no one I can get to play the Bachchan,” sighs Balki.
Not even AB Junior? “Abhishek? Is he crazy to do something so foolhardy? Of course Abhishek would never play his father on screen. He knows it’s impossible for anyone to play the Mega Bachchan , not even his own son.Just like Tiger Shroff would never play his dad Jackie. Or Raima Sen playing Suchitra Sen…suicidal!”
Balki is currently working with Abhishek Bachchan in Ghoomer. And yes, that too will have the senior Bachchan in a role.
“I cannot make a film that doesn’t have Mr Bachchan in it,”declares Balki.
Is Mr B his lucky mascot? “Calling him my lucky mascot would be very pedestrian. Mr Bachchan is much much more than that. I don’t have the words to describe his place in the history of Indian cinema.”
