The director duo, Abbas-Mustan, has been in the industry from nearly two decades, but they have never worked with megastar Amitabh Bachchan. However, they have finally signed Big B for their next flick.

It is learnt that Big B will feature in their upcoming thriller, which will have an ensemble cast.

A source close to the project said, “Mr. Bachchan had several script narrations with Abbas-Mustan. He has really liked the premise and is figuring out his schedule to accommodate this film.”

Abbas confirmed the news and said, “It’s true, we met Mr. Bachchan and he found the script fantastic. Along with him, there will be four more actors – two male and two female leads. We’ll be casting them soon.”

When asked about Big B’s role in the film, Mustan said, “It’s a positive character, he plays a man with several children. Then a murder draws him into an intriguing mystery.”

It will be interesting to watch Big B in an Abbas-Mustan style thriller.
