Amitabh Bachchan to reprise Rajinikanth’s ‘Kabali’ role?

Amitabh Bachchan birthday

Rajinikanth never fails to impress his audiences, as proven from the response of his latest South release ‘Kabali’ (2016). Where people all over the south are celebrating the films success, the Hindi dubbed version isn’t having the same effect. Due to this, the makers of the film have decided to to give Bollywood the rights to make a full fledged Hindi remake of the film, that will apparently star Amitabh Bachchan.

“Bachchan will star in the remake of ‘Kabali’. The reason Rajini�۪s Tamil films don�۪t do well when dubbed in Hindi is because they are very culture-specific. ‘Kabali’ is set in the Tamil community in Malaysia. The flavour, culture and dialogues are all peculiar to the Tamil community,”��Hindustan Times reported a source revealing.

Rajinikanth and Bachchan have always shared a great rapport, where many of Bachchan’s films have been inspired by the former’s films. Talking about their relationship was Bachchan who expressed, “Rajini is phenomenal. The largest, the best and truly the BOSS. The adulation, the following is incomparable. We are friends, colleagues. His modesty is legendary. His simplicity in his existence and in his demeanour is also legendary. We all know that he is The Emperor. I abhor epithets, but for him I will make exceptions, for he is truly exceptional.”

He went onto add, “Look where he came from and what he has become. Sheer hard work , talent and the belief that he could do it��_.and he did! Such a fantastic example for any youth in any part of the world. Despite his extraordinary career, he has remained that simple down-to-earth person he was when he started off. All his people around him are friends that were with him when he was a nobody.”
