Amitabh Bachchan on the sets of Uyarntha Manithan
Amitabh Bachchan, who is all set to make his Tamil debut with Uyarntha Manithan, has called himself a disciple of late southern superstar Sivaji Ganesan. The 76-year-old thespian shared a still from "Uyarntha Manithan" on Twitter late on Wednesday, showing him and actor-filmmaker SJ Suryah standing next to a wall with a photograph of Ganesan.
