Paa - Indian Bollywood Movie set World Record


Paa
It's soon going to be officially celebrated as the only bollywood
Indian film in the world featuring the father-son duo reversing their
real-life roles for the screen.

Real-life
father and son Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan are all set to
enter the Guinness Book Of World Records for being the only father-son
acting duo to have played reversed roles on screen in Paa. It's also the
only instance of a 67-year old actor playing a 12-year old child and a
31-year old actress playing mother to a 67 -year old actor.



Director
Balki admits Paa is pretty much a hotbed of unprecedented occurrences.
"You know, while casting and all through the shooting, I never sat back
to consider the uniqueness of the casting. It was only the people all
around me who seemed to be constantly conscious of the casting
oddity. To me Amitji, Abhishek and Vidya were playing the roles I had
in mind for them from the start. But now, I do see that the casting is
exceptional. It hasn't been done in any part of the world. So yes, plans
are afoot to enter Paa into the Guinness book in various categories."

The
necessary moves have already been made and Balki would make sure that
Paa gets noticed in the right categories as soon as release of the film
is out of the way.

After Paa, he plans to take a bit of a
vacation and let his wife Gauri Shinde direct a film for his production
house.

"Gauri has been a part of my creative processes for many
years now. We got married two years back. The film she wants to make is
very different from what I do. Her script has a flavour that's totally
removed from mine."

None of the Bachchans are likely to figure in
Balki's wife's directorial debut. But Balki intends to make his third
film with the Bachchans, this time making sure that Mrs Jaya Bachchan
too has a part.
