Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan has shared a black-and-white sketch of R Balki's upcoming film 'Shamitabh' on his blog.
The 72-year-old sports a pensive look with heavy beard in the sketch.
"Yes... Notice the 'Balki nisation' of the Blog, as in the years within the Balkans... Hehehe... Some times its good to laugh at one's own stupidity .. I just presented a sample .. !" he captioned the sketch.
Bachchan, who was here for Shoojit Sircar's 'Piku', co-starring Deepika Padukone, is off to Gujarat for the shooting of 'Shamitabh'.
"It's departure time in the morrow and more of the film that Balki asked me not to talk or print about, in the extensive lanes of Gujarat, away from the hurly-burly..." he posted.
The actor posted a poem along with his 'Shamitabh' look. The film also stars Dhanush and Tamil cinema star Kamal Haasan's daughter Akshara in her debut.
Bachchan has previously worked with Balki in 'Cheni Kum' (2007) and 'Paa' (2009).
