Some films have their own fate and they take time to see the light of the day having their own sweet time. This is what happened with Anurag Kashyap and Aanand L Rai's next, 'Manmarziyaan'. The lead cast of the movie kept changing until they got the perfect fit for the puzzle in the form of Abhishek Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu. Now that everything has fallen into place, the makers are going at a rapid pace, which is why Abhishek recently went BALD for the look test! In an Instagram video, Jr Bachchan can be seen in a salon, crying for help as he gets under the razor.
This will be for the first time that we will see Abhishek doing something really experimental with his look. Although we have seen his stellar performances in films like Raavan and Guru, we can hope for a new avatar of the Bunty aur Babli actor through this flick.
On a fun part, now that Abhi has already sacrificed his hair, it will be interesting to imagine him in those iconic roles who were popular more because of their bald look!
Shaakal in Shaan: Okay, there are many villains in the movie industry but the one who made bald- a scary thing, is this man! The way he caresses his bald head everytime he is upto some evil thinking, makes the character so bold that we wonder how Abhishek would do it!
Obadiah in Iron Man- If he we put our desi boy in this Hollywood flick, it would have certainly been an interesting watch to see this Iron Monger betraying Tony Stark and taking over the world with his ego. Marvels might want to try their luck with our man? (wink)
Voldemort in Harry Potter series: Lord Voldermort has been an irreplaceable part of the lives of the Potter fans. However, if the thing was made in India, we could steal Abhi from Manmarziyan and put him into the shoes of this unforgettable character! Bad idea or bad idea?
Kancha Cheena in Agneepath: Sanjay Dutt is the perfect person to do this role, we agree. But what's the harm is once trying to imagine Mr Bachchan in that role? If you think with an open mind, the guy can really pull off the character well, with his deep voice and that newly donned look!
Now, it is an unsaid rule that no one ever can replace these evergreen characters by anyone apart from them. Still, we must admit that there would be a unique touch to the roles if Aaradhya's papa stepped in to do them!
