Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan says working with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali in ‘Black’ is turning out to be a mix of learning and unlearning process for him.
While talking about his experience of working with Bhansali, Bachchan says: “I'm now at an age when the process of learning slows down. But here I am learning and unlearning constantly with Bhansali. I had to be trained for the role in ‘Black’, albeit in a limited manner."
Bachchan is particularly impressed by Bhansali’s passion for filmmaking and his meticulous eye for every single detail.
“His efficiency, his desire to get everything absolutely unquestionably right is remarkable. As an artiste, I crave for this level of commitment. I rank him very highly. That he's able do create two films as dissimilar as ‘Devdas’ and "Black" one after another is a measure of his sensitivity,” says Bachchan in Bhansali’s praise.
In fact, Bachchan goes on to candidly accept that he was “very scared, anxious and nervous” before shooting for ‘Black’, which he says is based on “a wonderfully sensitive script”.
And the superstar adds: “It would be such a shame if I don't get his ideas across.”
