Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he is all set to shoot for filmmaker Shoojit Sircar's "Piku".
The actor has just returned from Jaipur where he was accompanied by his granddaughter Aaradhya and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai to cheer for Jaipur Pink Panthers, a Pro Kabaddi League franchise owned by his son Abhishek.
And now he is ready for another challenge.
"Back to Mumbai... in a couple of hours to face another challenge... the camera for Shoojit's film," Amitabh posted on his blog srbachchan.tumblr.com Sunday morning.
It has been a busy year for the 71-year-old, who was part of the TV series "Yudh" and currently he is seen as the host of "Kaun Banega Crorepati 8".
Sircar is known for his successes like "Madras Cafe" and "Vicky Donor".
"Piku" also stars Deepika Padukone and Irrfan. It will hit the screens April 30, 2015.
