The ultimate Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan never seems to stop growing. The older he grows, the better he becomes as an actor. And he still seems to be romantic at heart. Hold your breath, he is going to romance a girl 36 years younger to him in his next film.
Ram Gopal Varma has announced his next project titled 'Nishabd', leaving his ambitious project 'Sholay' behind. It will be based on Vladimir Nakobov's novel 'Lolita'. In the film, Amitabh Bachchan will play the lead role of a 54-year old married man, who falls in love with a young girl. Interestingly, the girl will be 36 years younger to him according to the story of the film.
The makers of the film have decided to cast newcomer Jia to play Amitabh's love interest so as to bring shade of reality to the film. Amitabh Bachchan is excited to be a part of the project.
It is said that Varma has been thinking of doing this film for quite a while now. He said that love has nothing to do with age, as people fall in love irrespective of age. Nakobov's novel is about a 44-year old man fantasizing a 14-year-old girl but 'Nishabd' is said to be a complete love story.
The film is likely to go to the floors by May 1. The makers of the film are planning to complete the whole shooting in a single schedule.
