Mr and Mrs Big B will complete forty years of marriage on June 3, 2013. And to celebrate it, two filmmakers have decided to release their ventures starring Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan to coincide with the occasion.
On one hand, the release date of the Hindi version of Big B's makeup artist Deepak Sawant's Bhojpuri film Ganga Devi will be pushed to next year. On the other, Shoojit Sircar has decided to start shooting Garden House and release it alongside Sawant's.
To TOI, Sawant said, "I've been with Bachchansaab for the last forty years. To me he and Jayaji are like Ram and Sita. I am their Hanuman. The Hindi version of Ganga Devi is completely ready. All the dubbing by Bachchan Saab and Jayaji and all other artistes is done. But we're going to release the Hindi version next year close to their 40th wedding anniversary."
Interestingly Sawant is releasing the Bhojpuri version of his film next month on September 14. Shoojit's film Garden House, is one of the three projects that the Big B has given his nod to after his surgery. The other two are with R. Balki and Sujoy Ghosh.
To TOI, Big B said, "Shoojit came up with an interesting concept for the two of us (Big B and Jaya). So why not? As for Deepak Sawant, he has been with me from the beginning of my career. Neither Jaya nor I can say no to him."
As for the 40th wedding anniversary, besides the two back-to-back Amitabh-Jaya releases, R. Balki is planning a documentary tribute to one of the most memorable screen pairs.
