Abhishek Bachchan in a never-seen-before avatar

Hyderabad: On Jr Bachchan’s birthday, the producer of the film ‘The Big Bull’ Anand Pandit says what we have seen of his talent is just the tip of the iceberg. The plotline of the film is based on the life of Harshad Mehta, a stockbroker, involved in financial crimes over a period of 10 years, from 1980 to 1990. Abhishek Bachchan portrays the titular protagonist, co-starring Nikita Dutta, Ileana D’Cruz, Sohum Shah, Ram Kapoor, and Saurabh Shukla.

Abhishek celebrates his birthday on February 5 and veteran producer Anand Pandit feels that the actor’s talent inspires him to think of a shocking, never-seen-before story where the actor can explore a totally new aspect of his histrionics.

Says Pandit, “Even before I worked with Abhishek in ‘The Big Bull,’ I admired him as an actor but his work ethic and professionalism just blew me away. I also realised that what we have seen of Abhishek’s talent is just the tip of the iceberg and I want to cast him in a role he has never done before.”

Pandit is exploring many ideas including an out-and-out action avatar in a revenge saga. “We have usually seen him playing roles that tap into his gentler side but in films where his characters have been darker, he has excelled as well. Remember ‘Yuva’? I want to see him explore this aspect more deeply in a story that brings out a lot more than what his roles have revealed so far. I am sure he will be game for it as he is always ready to go the extra mile and push his boundaries,” he added.

Abhishek’s performance in the crime thriller film ‘Bob Biswas’ was also appreciated by many.
