The makers of the film ‘Aladdin’ were quite apprehensive about the key sequence in their film which required the character played by legendry Amitabh Bachchan to kneel before Sanjay Dutt’s character and also touch his feet. The scene was an important part of the film’s narrative where Genius-the Genie (played by Big B) surrenders before the ringmaster (played by Sanjay Dutt).
Sujoy and others feared how exactly millions of Amitabh Bachchan fans would accept this scene. For Sanjay Dutt too it was challenging since Amitabh Bachchan is too big a name to be kneeling down.
But, given the professionalism of the Shehenshah of Bollywood everything went on perfectly as Big B was game of the scene and quite well understood its importance. The film does convey the message of good’s win over evil and the scene heightens the impact of the final result.
“That’s the beauty of working with Mr. Bachchan”, says Sujoy, “He lets himself be driven as wanted by the director. We were a bunch of kids wondering how to approach Sir to do this scene and there he was game to do whatever that went well with the character. He has always stated that once he is committed to a project, he doesn’t protest on anything. This is why we could can such a crucial scene without any hindrance. It is indeed one of the highlights of the film.”

Last week we had two big budget flicks London Dreams and hit the movie screens.
London Dreams childish climax and highly predictable ending, still earning a 3/5 rating by most reviewers and critics.
As for Aladin, even Big B couldn’t save a poor script with dialogues that are far from funny and special effects that even children wont be impressed with! This film did not get beyond 2/5 rating from critics.
But what is YOUR VERDICT about these two films – Fab or Drab? How would you rate these films on the scale of 5?

Well he hasn’t bowed down in front of him in reality, but for a crucial scene in his flick Aladin.
A source from the movie says, “An important part of the film’s narrative requires the character played by Amitabh Bachchan to surrender in front of Ringmaster, which is played by Sanjay Dutt. Though this was always a part of the script, there was all an around apprehension around the shooting of this scene. Sujoy and others feared how exactly would millions ofAmitabh Bachchan fans accept this scene. For Sanjay Dutt too it was challenging since Amitabh Bachchan is too big a name to be kneeling down.”However, the professional Amitabh is, he didn’t hesitate to shoot the scene.
Director Sujoy says, “That’s the beauty of working with Mr. Bachchan. He lets himself be driven as wanted by the director. We were a bunch of kids wondering how to approach Sir to do this scene and there he was game to do whatever that went well with the character. He has always stated that once he is committed to a project, he doesn’t protest on anything. This is why we could can such a crucial scene without any hindrance.

As the superstar of Bollywood, Big B, turned 67 on 11th October, he is rding high on success. The latest addition to his achievements is as the host of ‘Big Boss 3’ on the smaller screen. He will also be seen as a genie in his soon to be released ‘Aladin’.
Amitabh Bachchan was born to Hindi poet Dr. Harivansh Rai Bachchan. He started his career in Bollywood in 1969 and now in 2009 he has completed four decades of his life entertaining us.
On his retirement and career plans, Amitabh said, “I would disagree that actors of my age don’t get important roles to play in movies. Look at Dada Muni (Ashok Kumar)…he was an example. He kept doing important roles even till he was 80 years old. I can’t be playing the lover boy anymore. So I do all those roles that suit a 67-year-old.”
Last year, Big B had a very quiet birthday owing to his mother’s illness. This year he plans to spend his birthday with his family. He says, “I shall be with my family in the night to bring in my birthday. Abhishek and Aishwarya shall drive down from location to be with me.”
All the best wishes to the Shehenshah of Hindi Cinema from the team of Bollywood stars!!!
