April 2 marked Amitabh Bachchan’s first day of shoot for Ram Gopal Varma’s Rann. Amitabh plays Harshvarshan Malik, the founder of the first private news channel in India. The entire cast and crew of Rann stood frozen in silence for a very long time after Amitabh’s television speech was shot.According to co-artistes on the sets, Amitabh read and analysed the TV script based on communal riots, before adding his own lines. The speech was originally written by Rohit Banwalikar. Explaining the situation on the sets after Amitabh finished the shot, Varma said, “Mr Bachchan saw and absorbed the dialogues. He loved the emotional plea against violence and spontaneously added his own thoughts to it.
The end result was magnificent. Every time I work with him, I feel I am discovering new facets to his personality. This man is unbelievable.”Harshvarshan Malik’s character requires Amitabh to bring forth his Hindi oratory skills. “Besides possessing the best voice in the business, Mr Bachchan’s big advantage is that he’s equally brilliant with Hindi and English.He has also sharpened his powers of expression through his blog. So now when we shot a sequence where he was supposed to speak on a social issue he just let it flow,” said Varma.
Confirming the story, Amitabh said, “The speech was strictly for the camera. I’m working on the RGV film where I play the owner of channel called 24/7. But public issues? No thanks!”

Amitabh Bachchan is set to play a superstar named Ashmit Bhargava in Kushan Nandy’s “The Actor”, which incorporates many incidents from the Big B’s life, making it his most autobiographical film to date.”Yes, I wrote ‘The Actor’ for Mr. Bachchan, along with two writer-friends Kiran Shyam Shroff and Ghalib Asad,” said Kushan.
Confirming the news, Amitabh said: “Yes, I’m doing a film for Pritish Nandy (Kushan’s father). The details you’ll have to get from him.”
The film is being produced by Pritish Nandy Communications (PNC) and will go on floors in the next few months.Nandy and Amitabh got together for director Sanjay Gupta’s “Kaante” in 2002, but after that there were reports of a rift created between them by a third party that didn’t want the two to work together.
“I wouldn’t like to go into the past, or comment on our relationship. Amitabh and I go back a long, long way. I’ve known him from long before the troublemakers were born. It was just a matter of the right vehicle for the amazing actor. When my son came up with ‘The Actor’, I knew this was it. I immediately approached Amitabh. We met several times and he agreed.”
The rest of the cast is now being finalised.
“But getting the principal part right was imperative,” said Nandy. “I don’t think anyone else could’ve played Ashmit Bhargava the way Kushan wrote the character. The protagonist has to be an icon who’s about 55-60 years old, portraying what’s according to the script the greatest actor playing the biggest role of his life.”
So are the identical initials of the superstar in “The Actor” and the one playing the role more than a mere coincidence?”I think so,” laughed Nandy. “I think the initials for Amitabh Bachchan and Ashmit Bhargava say it all.”
