The shooting of Prabhas’ upcoming film Fauji (working title) has come to a grinding halt, recently! Partly because of Prabhas’ injury, and also due to the superstar prioritizing his forthcoming release The Raja Saab. However, the filmmakers have completed 25 per cent of the shooting. And in the meantime, rumours are rife that Abhishek Bachchan is in talks for a significant role in the war drama. While the reports doing the rounds may be outrageous it’s certainly catching the fans by surprise.

Reports of Abhishek Bachchan set to share screen with Prabhas in the upcoming Telugu film Fauji has certainly excited the fans

Reports of Jr Bachchan is set to share screen with Prabhas in his upcoming Telugu film Fauji (working title) has certainly excited the fans. A little birdie tells us that director Hanu Raghavapudi has considered approaching Abhishek Bachchan for a pivotal role in his upcoming film. Buzz is that the filmmaker had already initiated talks to rope in the Dhoom actor for the part. Apparently, director Hanu offered a special role to Abhishek Bachchan. While Prabhas shares a great bond with Amitabh Bachchan, chances are likely that Jr Bachchan may give his nod for the part. Sources close to the production house state that Abhishek seems to be positive about the opportunity.

“Efforts are on to rope in Abhishek Bachchan for a crucial cameo, but the production house hasn’t got anything positive yet from the actor. The filmmakers are hoping that Jr Bachchan’s inclusion will add a new dimension to the cast apart from boosting the film’s visibility in Hindi,” says a trade source. Will he, won’t he? Time will tell. Imanvi is playing the female lead opposite Prabhas in the film. On the other hand, Abhishek’s father Amitabh already featured in a couple of Telugu films — Syera Narasimha Reddy, starring Megastar Chiranjeevi, and in Prabhas-starrer Kalki 2898 AD Part 1. Perhaps, it’s Jr Bachchan’s turn now, if all goes well.
