When the whole of north India was in the grip of cold waves, superstar Amitabh Bachchan was enjoying the snowy weather while shooting in Shimla.
Big B has been in Himachal Pradesh for last few weeks, shooting for Shoojit Sircar’s film ‘Shoebite’ in which he is paired with Sarika for the first time.
The duo plays a couple in the autumn of their lives.
Sircar, who has a fascination for snow, has been shooting the film outdoors in the snowy landscapes of Shimla. And there have been times during the shoots when it begins to snow and the shooting has to be halted temporarily.
While the biting cold has kept many of the film’s crew indoors, Big B, on the other hand, seems to be enjoying the weather so much that he often takes his still camera and goes for long strolls in between shots.
The cold also fails to prevent Big B from reporting to the shooting sets on time in the morning. And while some of the unit hands have fallen ill due to the cold, the Big B is hale and hearty and in the best of spirits.
This firmness on the superstar’s part has inspired the film’s cast and crew to complete the work on time.
However, due to the attack on his house in Mumbai on Sunday night, Big B is learnt to have cut short his stay in Shimla and is returning back home to Mumbai.
