For his ambitious period epic ' Mehrunissa ', Sudhir Mishra was in search of two young actors who could portray the younger avatars of young Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor . Reportedly, he wants to sign two theatre actors, who will play these roles.
The two actors will then spend the entire 40 days shoot of the film ' Mehrunissa ' in Lucknow, where Big B and Rishi Kapoor would be shooting for the flick. They would be observing these super-iconic actors constantly on and off screen to imbibe and absorb minute details of their body postures, hand movements, etc. and use it while performing.
The director wants to use entirely new faces and hence his two casting directors are working on to finalize the young Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor from the 100 names that have been shortlisted.
Let's see who these two lucky actors are!
