Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has jokingly compared his picture of sailing on a boat in the Hoogly river with Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer "Titanic".
Bachchan, 73, who worked with DiCaprio in his Hollywood debut "The Great Gatsby", is currectly shooting for Ribhu Dasgupta's film "Te3N" here.
"That is like Leonardo DiCaprio of Titanic at the helm of the boat, secure that nothing shall strike the hull or the bow of this one with the devastating ice berg... Why? Because the Hoogly does not possess qualities to produce ice bergs! That was like the most sickly humour of the decade!!," he wrote on his blog.
In the picture, the "Piku" star is seen lying on the boat in the backdrop of Vidyasagar Setu.
Produced by Sujoy Ghosh of "Kahaani" fame, "Te3N" also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui in a prominent role.
