‘It is more or less complete’: Abhishek Bachchan’s upcoming movie with Shoojit Sircar
After months of speculation, Shoojit Sircar has finally confirmed that Abhishek Bachchan will be starring in his next movie. The film is being lauded as a slice-of-life cinematic experience. The specific details about the movie have been kept tightly under wraps. However, Sircar recently revealed that it will delve into the life of an ordinary individual, exploring the nuances of their memorable journey.
In a recent interview, Shoojit Sircar addressed the secrecy surrounding the project. He stated, “There is no secret as such but since we are shooting after a long time… the idea was to just shoot the film and announce it when the time is ripe.” This approach, he explained, was to avoid the constant barrage of announcements that often saturate the film industry, allowing for more deliberate unveiling when the timing is optimal.
While the storyline and supporting cast details are yet to be announced, Shoojit Sircar revealed Abhishek Bachchan will be in the lead role. He further emphasized the importance of painting suspense around the storyline, stating, “The problem is that the minute you announce a film, people will ask ‘Achha story kya hai batao (Please tell us the story).’ If I tell them the story, who will watch the film?”
However, Sircar shared insights into the inspiration behind his upcoming movie. The Piku director revealed that the untitled film draws inspiration from the life of a close friend. Despite the secrecy, Shoojit Sircar disclosed that a significant portion of the film had already been shot. “It is more or less complete!” he affirmed, hinting at the film’s progress. Thus, teasing the audience with what lies ahead, Sircar expressed his enthusiasm for collaborating with Abhishek Bachchan.
