HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Big B to play Abhishek's grandpa04th Mar 2008 17.45 IST By ApunKaChoice Amitabh Bachchan will be seen playing Abhishek Bachchan’s grandfather in director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s film Dilli 6 . Abhishek Bachchan may not have liked the idea of playing the younger Big B in Shoojit Sircar’s in-the-making film ‘Shoebite’, but the senior Bachchan has happily agreed to act in Mehra’s semi-autobiographical flick starring Abhishek and Sonam Kapoor in lead roles. 
The film has Amitabh and Waheeda Rahman playing grandparents of the character played by Abhishek. Big B and Waheeda ji have worked together in a number of films in the 70s and 80s, and ‘Dilli 6’ marks their coming together after a long gap of about 25 years. Mehra, who is extremely fond of Waheeda ji (she was also part of his Rang De Basanti ), reportedly wanted her only to play the role of Abhi’s grandma. Reports say that the two senior actors have already shot a few portions of the film in Rajasthan.
