Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor will be seen sharing screen space in director Umesh Shukla and writer Saumya Joshi’s ‘102 Not Out’. The film is an adaptation of the popular Gujarati play with the same name. The ageless comedy will feature the actors in a father and son role.
Amitabh Bachchan, who plays a 102-year-old man living life to the fullest, shared, “Teaming up with Chintuji after so many years and so many successful historic films, has been the greatest joy during ‘102 Not Out’. A novel story, competent direction and a qualified crew have made the experience even greater. I know the country loves the younger, fresh and vibrant new generation, but whoever said that the oldies are not capable of doing something similar, we know you may not love us, but given a chance, we shall not disappoint you either. And that is as immodest as I can get. BADUMBAAAAAAAAA!”
Rishi Kapoor, as Mr Bachchan’s 75-year-old son in the film, said, “Being in this film brought back a lot of fond memories that I have shared with Amitji during my younger days. I am glad to reunite with him on such a special and unusual film. It will definitely delight our fans.”
Umesh Shukla the director of the film, shared, “Amitabh sir and Rishi sir make for a dream cast. I sensed a deep responsibility in bringing them together. I am thankful to Treetop Entertainment and Sony Pictures India who have helped me realise my vision,”
