Big B confident of RGV Ki Aag
The wait for Ram Gopal Varma’s Sholay turned Aag is now almost over and the man who has been a part of both the original and the remake was there in Mumbai to promote the film on Wednesday.
Big B plays the iconic character of Gabbar in the new age Aag.
“He is such a mercurial character, he is so unpredictable as to what he is going to do next. For an actor it is the entire book of acting put into one chapter called called Gabbar Singh. It is so marvellous,” said Amitabh.
When Ramesh Sippy thought of Sholay, the film world thought it to be an over ambitious project can the same be said about Ram Gopal Varma?
“A certain amount of bravery and guts goes in wanting to pick up something which has already been classified as this is legendary and iconic. And then want to replace it or rather reposition it into a realm, which is contemporary more real but still have the little bit of flavour and essence of the real, I think is very challenging all of us as actors, challenging for a maker, it is for the writers to interpret all that in recent times. So, for us it was a new product and at the back of the mind a bell ringing in our mind that we have seen it earlier,” he said.
Well, Friday is not very far away Ramesh Sippy definitely proved his critics wrong will Ramu now do the same?
