After Abhay Deol had a fallout with his Oye Lucky director Dibakar Banerjee, the latter has put on hold the film that the two were supposed to do. Though they are on talking terms, the director feels the time is not right for them to be working together.
Dibakar has now started working on another script that he had in mind. After Oye Lucky’s success, Dibakar has been touted as a name to watch out for and there’s no dearth of takers for his project. And although his script isn’t ready yet, Amitabh Bachchan has already committed to doing the film.
The director met Big B at a public function in Mumbai recently and was surprised to find the legend singing his praises. In his excitement, Banerjee narrated the idea of his script to Bachchan and he couldn’t believe his ears when the latter said he would love to do the film and enquired about when they could start rolling.
There’s a part in the film that suits Bachchan perfectly and he is keen on playing it. What’s more, Bachchan believed Tabu was the right choice for the female lead in the film and even called her immediately after the event and told her about the project. Now all Dibakar has to do is give Tabu a call when the final draft is ready and get his project rolling.
