Veteran producer Anand Pandit’s friendship with Big B goes back a long way and his love and respect for the actor is well known within and outside the Bollywood circles. For the evergreen actor’s 77th birthday, the producer found a unique way to surprise him. Keeping it a surprise right till the D-day, Anand Pandit has got a special video collage made with photographs of at least a hundred of the memorable characters portrayed by Amitabh Bachchan. The video ends with the photographs morphing into Big B’s look for his upcoming film Chehre. This message will be played at least 60,000 times in theatres across the country. “There is no one like Mr Bachchan. Even before I met him, I was a dedicated fan and admired his work. We felt that his birthday is the best time to reflect on his incredible body of work and the range of characters he has portrayed on screen,” says Anand Pandit. Incidentally, Pandit is also working with Abhishek Bachchan simultaneously in The Big Bull, which he is producing with Ajay Devgn. Chehre is a mystery thriller with Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi in lead roles.
