Even though Sarkar may not have turned out to be a money-spinner at the box-office abroad, the movie is enjoying a good run back home. Stellar performances by Abhishek Bachchan , Amitabh Bachchan and Kay Kay Menon have got critical acclaim, and Varma’s treatment of the subject appreciated by many movie buffs.
To celebrate the movie’s success Varma threw a lavish party for the movie’s cast, crew and other celebrities from the film industry at J.W. Marriott in Juhu on Monday.
The film’s leading stars – Abhishek and Amitabh – were present at the party. However, the Big Bachchan stayed for just a few minutes while Abhishek lingered long enough to savor the celebrations.
Varma, in particular, looked in a very jovial mood and said he felt immensely honored to have directed Amitabh Bachchan, one of his favorite actors, in a movie.
