The unthinkable has happened. The living legend of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan, has been made to kneel down. And this has happened for a key sequence in ALADIN where the man, who plays the role of ‘Genius - The Genie’, is required to touch Sanjay Dutt’s feet.
Says a source attached to the feel, “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 of Amitabh Bachchan fans accept this scene. For Sanjay Dutt too it was challenging since Amitabh Bachchan is too big a name to be kneeling down.”
