Big B and Rishi kapoor shares screen


New Delhi:  Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor will be back on the silver screen after 26 years and their new collaboration is a film titled, 102 Not Out. As the name suggests, it has something to do with the number 102. Is it a cricket score or a house number? No, it's actually the age of Big B's character in the film, who plays father to 75-year-old son to be portrayed by Mr Kapoor. If this is hard to believe, you must witness the first look of the veterans in their 'not out' persona, shared by trade analyst Taran Adarsh. "102 Not Out features Amitabh (Bachchan) as a 102-year-old and Rishi (Kapoor) as his 75-year-old son," Mr Adarsh wrote on Twitter. The film will be helmed by Umesh Shukla, who has already directed Mr Kapoor once in 2015 film All Is Well. 1991's Ajooba, directed by Shashi Kapoor and Gennadiy Vasilev, was the last time Mr Kapoor and Big B shared screen space together.

Rishi Kapoor, 64, and Amitabh Bachchan, 74, have famously co-starred in 1977's Amar Akbar Anthony and 1976's Kabhie Kabhie apart from Naseeb and Ajooba. Rishi Kapoor also featured in a supporting role in Amitabh Bachchan's Coolie. Mr Kapoor, who made many explosive revelations in his autobiography Khullam Khulla, had also opened up about being overshadowed by Amitabh Bachchan in the Seventies and Eighties. "Amitabh is undeniably a superb actor, immensely talented and, at the time, the number one star who ruled the box-office. He was an action hero, the angry young man. So roles were written for him. Although we may have been smaller stars, we were not lesser actors. Yet, the rest of us had to constantly measure up to him," wrote Mr Kapoor.
