Amitabh Bachchan is easily one of the biggest stars India has ever seen. With a career spanning decades and a body of work to envy, every actor feels privileged to work with him. Recently, Shishir Sharma shared an interesting detail about Big B with whom he worked on Ram Gopal Varma's 2008 crime drama film Sarkar Raj.
Shishir Sharma talks about Amitabh Bachchan
In an interview with Rajshri Unplugged, actor Shishir Sharma shared his experience of working with Amitabh Bachchan on Sarkar Raj. He said, “Working with Bachchan saab was the icing on the cake. What can an actor ask for more than that? It was such a pleasure working with him. I did a couple of scenes with him, and it was a great, great experience because he’s such a professional."
Shishir revealed that Sr Bachchan doesn't move from his place until the director tells him to. "He will not move from his place until the director tells him to move. If the director says, ‘It’s a wrap for the scene sir,’ after that he will get up and leave. Until that happens, he will sit there in one place. So, I thought that was something that one has to imbibe from an actor like him," he added.
In the same interview, Sharma also praised Naseeruddin Shah and Aamir Khan, calling them of the 'same caliber.' He wondered why actors from today's generation don't learn professionalism from Aamir, Naseer, and Big B.
