Paa in the hands of Abhishek Bachchan

People are awed at the promos and stills of ‘Paa’. Already making waves, this ABCL production will surely go a long way. Although the movie is under Amitabh Bachchan’s banner, Bachchan Junior is the one who is handling the production department. However, this is not the first time that Abhishek is governing the production of a film. “I am trained as and used to be a production boy on Mrityudaata and Major Saab during the ABCL days,” said Abhishek. But this is the first time the actor is working for his dad’s company. He is very happy that he took on the stress, for; Paa has turned out exactly as he wanted it to, stated Abhishek. Consequently, the movie proved to be challenging for him, by wearing two hats – as actor and producer. And said to be a great learning experience as well. The Junior B with an expert economical eye saw that every account is in place. “At a time when you see some astronomical budgets, I managed to make the film in just Rs 15 crore all inclusive,” shares Abhishek. He is of opinion that in today’s times it is very important to make an “economically viable project”. by RAKHI
