I Joined Film Industry Because Of Amitabh Bachchan: Farhan

Darpan News Desk, 05 Jun, 2015 01:48 PM

Actor, singer, filmmaker Farhan Akhtar says the reason why he's a part of showbiz is not because he comes from a film family, but due to megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

Farhan will be sharing screen space with the Big B in “Wazir”, an upcoming political action drama thriller directed by Bejoy Nambiar.

Talking about working with him, Farhan said: “It is almost dream like to be sharing this kind of screen space with him. I have had the fortune of working with him once before, but this really is a whole other level.

“I have said that over and over again that one of the predominant reasons for me to want to be in the world of movies was Amitabh Bachchan’s work."

Farhan's latest movie "Dil Dhadakne Do" is meanwhile, getting eyeballs galore on the big screen.
