Today's big release: Ajay and Abhishek in Bol Bachchan

Today's big release: Ajay and Abhishek in <i>Bol Bachchan</i>
New Delhi: After offering a series of hit films together like the Golmaal series and Singham, actor Ajay Devgn and director Rohit Shetty are all set for another comedy caper, Bol Bachchan which releases today. And this time Abhishek Bachchan joins the actor-director duo.

Asin Thottumkal and Prachi Desai play female leads in the movie.

The movie revolves around Abbas Ali, played by Abhishek who shifts to village Ranakpur owned by wrestler Prithviraj Raghuvanshi (Ajay Devgn). Circumstances lead to Abbas adopting two identities which is followed by many goof-ups and brings a twist to the tale.

In a recent reality show on TV, Ajay Devgn said his role in the movie is a mix of his character in Golmaal and Singham . "I enjoyed it...this character is very tough, but very soft and emotional at heart plus comic. So, it is a combination of everything. I would say this character is a combination of Singham and Golmaal."

It's Abhishek Bachchan's first release post fatherhood and it is for the first time that the actor will be seen in a double role.

Inspired by the 1979 movie Gol Maal, director Rohit Shetty says he is fine if critics thrashing Bol Bachchan as according to him every film they trash goes on to work magic at the box office.

The film ran into trouble when a Nagpur based distributors, Hira Laxmi Amusement, alleged that Ajay's company dishonoured a deal and refused to return an advance of Rs 1 crore.

One of the many features to look forward in the film is a special dance number by megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the title song. The 69-year-old recreates the iconic song My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves and pops out of a life-sized egg.
