To hell with niceties....

Guru releases on Jan. 12th. Here Amitabh Bachchan talks about the film and about Abhishek. Read on...

You finally saw Guru yesterday. Your comments?

Yes, I saw Guru last night and I’ve asked to see it again today and I shall want to see it a 100 times over. It is Mani’s best. And I speak as a viewer, not as a father. I have held myself back on many an occasion from commenting on my son’s work, but this time I shall not. To hell with niceties and restraint. Abhishek is incredible! I have been choked with emotion ever since I have emerged from the theatre and still am.

This is a role of a lifetime for him and he has given a performance of a lifetime. It’s a role any actor worth his salt would die for and it’s a performance that any actor worth his salt will envy.

This is the truth, because it comes from within. For someone so young to have performed the way he has, is a revelation. It is the culmination of his strife to prove himself in the face of continuing odds and innuendos.

And it is ironic, so ironic, that this is what Guru is all about. The determination, the will and the strength of a common man to succeed in the face of unending obstacles and his courage of conviction, to emerge victorious.

You’ve never been like this before!

My father wrote in his biography ‘When a father loses to his son, it is his greatest victory!’ I’ve lost to my son! And I’m the happiest father alive! As for working with Mani, I called him last night after the showing and told him, ‘Now that you have made my son’s life, could you make mine as well, please?’

What do you foresee 2007 for yourself?

I don’t wish to foresee anything for myself. I have already foreseen what I want to see, last night !!
