Amitabh Bachchan on the sets of Uyarntha Manithan
Amitabh Bachchan, who is all set to make his Tamil debut with Uyarntha Manithan, has called himself a disciple of late southern superstar Sivaji Ganesan. The 76-year-old thespian shared a still from "Uyarntha Manithan" on Twitter late on Wednesday, showing him and actor-filmmaker SJ Suryah standing next to a wall with a photograph of Ganesan.
"Two disciples under the shadow of the master -- Sivaji Ganesan -- Surya and self! Shivaji the ultimate, iconic (and) legend of Tamil Cinema. His picture adorns the wall. An artist of such immensity and incredible talent. My respect and admiration. I touch his feet!" Big B captioned the image.
