Aamir Khan , Shahrukh Khan and Akshay Kumar may be currently ruling the roost both in the Indian as well as the overseas market, but there’s no denying Amitabh Bachchan ’s star power in any Bollywood-crazy city in the world.
At a recent charity auction in London, a frame with the Big B in Teen Patti was lapped up for a whopping 25,0000 pounds, outbidding other attractive offers like a night out with legendary singer Tina Turner and even a dinner with the British Prime Minister.
Says Ambika Hinduja, whose Serendipity Films is producing this film, “I am thrilled to be able to support the Silver Star Appeal, which works for such an honourable cause (it raises funds to run a Mobile Diabetes Assessment Unit).
Rubbishing reports of Bachchan delaying the film’s outdoor shoot in the US, Ambika says, “Mr. Bachchan has been more than co-operative in giving us the dates we require. The America schedule is planned for early next year based on the permissions we have secured for the required shooting locations.”
'Teen Patti' will require the Big B to acquire dexterity in shuffling and dealing the cards. And the problem is that Mr. Bachchan doesn’t play cards in real life. In fact, he says he is “terrible” with cards.
But for the movie, he will have to learn the skills with cards.
