And if you are too curious to remove the carton from the pic and see how Bachchan looks as a 13 year old in 39 years body, click here.
In the film Paa, Amitabh Bachchan (Auro) suffers from a disease called Progeria, a rare genetic disorder in which a person ages three times faster than a normal person. Its a family drama in which Abhishek Bachchan and Vidya Balan are parents to Amitabh Bachchan, their 13 year old son who looks 39, and its all about how they try to deal with it. The look has been designed after much research and the make up used to take almost 4-5 hours everyday.
Strangely, the basic premise of Paa sounds similar to Francis Ford Coppola’s film Jack starring Robin Williams. To quote from IMDB….
The movie is about a boy with a unique aging disorder: one that makes him age 4 times faster than normal. Movie picks up when Jack (Robin Williams) is 10 years old, but looks 40. He tries to go to public school for the first time, and tries to become friends with kids his own age. His physical appearance causes him lots of problems, however.
So, is Paa really Jack ? Inspiration, plagiarism or just coincidence ? Few more days and we will have the answer.
Its one of the most anticipated films of the year! And finally here is the first look of the film! The trailer of Rajkumar Hirani’s Three Idiots starring Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, R Madhavan, Sharman Joshi & Boman Irani. The film is produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, has music by Shantanu Moitra and lyrics by Swanand Kirkire. 
The first trailer of Ken Ghosh’s new film Chance Pe Dance is out. Its produced by UTV and stars Shahid Kapoor and Genelia D’Souza. The film was earlier titled Yahoo. As always, most of the time the first trailer of our films dont say much about the film but puts out a montage of some of the best looking shots and so is this one. Check out.
