Jr. Bachchan As A Left-handed Batsman!

Creative director R Balki shot to fame in Bollywood with movies like Cheeni Kum, Paa, and Shamitaab. As per the latest buzz in the B-Town, it is being heard that the director is teaming up with Abhishek Bachchan for a cricket-based sports drama.

Apparently, Abhishek will feature as a left-handed batsman in this movie. It is also heard that both the male and female leads will appear as cricketers in the film. The hunt for the female lead is currently going on.

According to Pinkvilla, a source said, “R Balki has always been close to the Bachchan Family and over the last few years, has been discussing the possibilities of collaborating with Abhishek Bachchan on a feature film. Things have finally fallen in place as the two have initiated advanced conversations for a cricket-based film. It would feature Jr. Bachchan as a left-handed batsman.”

It is reported that the shoot of this film will commence once Abhishek finishes the works of Amazon Prime Video’s Breathe season 3.

“Balki too will finish work on the post-production of Chup by then. Apart from this cricket-based film, he has also locked the screenplay for a human drama, which he plans to make with Sunny Deol, Revathi, and Shruti Haasan. However, it has been delayed for now as Sunny will be busy shooting for Gadar 2 over the next 6 months,” the source further added.

Balki is currently busy with the works of Chup. This movie features Sunny Deol, Dulquer Salmaan, Pooja Bhatt, and Shreya Dhanwantary in the lead roles.
