‘The Big Bull': Abhishek Bachchan's film produced by Ajay D goes on

Last year, it was reported that Ajay Devgn and Inder Kumar will be joining hands and co-producing a film titled The Big Bull. It was reported that the film will be loosely based on the life of Harshad Mehta (the infamous stockbroker who was arrested for financial crimes). The movie is being helmed by Kookie Gulati and when Ajay was asked if he will play the lead role, the actor stated, "In fact, the casting is underway. The team is looking for an established actor, who can pull off the role."

Now, the male lead of the film is confirmed and it's none other than Abhishek Bachchan. The actor took to his Instagram page and shared a photo of the clapperboard with a caption stating, "Here we go! A new journey, a new beginning. Need your best wishes. @ajaydevgn #KookieGulati @anandpandit". As per reports in Mumbai Mirror, the film will have Ileana D'Cruz as the female lead but she is not paired opposite Abhishek.

A source had told the tabloid, "It is based on real events that took place between 1990 and 2000 and changed India’s financial fabric. Ajay loved the subject and immediately agreed to back it. Ileana has a very strong role in the film but isn’t paired opposite Abhishek. The team is on the lookout for an actress to be paired with him. The film will go on the floors by the year-end."

Meanwhile, Abhishek will next be seen in Anurag Basu directorial which is also an anthology starring several Bollywood actors
