Amitabh Bachchan feels ‘privileged’ to be in Project K

The Piku actor wrote, “I am honoured and have had the great privilege of being a part of this great enterprise in Telugu Cinema, ‘Project K’ and to have had the huge honour of being in the same frame of the Idol, Prabhas. Thank you all and thank you Nagi Sir, for thinking of me. The humility, the respect and the concern Prabhas has given me has been so so touching & emotional. Not for me, but for all those involved in ‘Project K’, may your hard work touch new horizons. Love and prayers.”

On the other hand, Deepika Padukone also feels proud as Project will be the first Indian movie to go to Comic Con. She wrote, “Proud to be a part of the first ever Indian Movie to go to Comic-Con. See you there!”

Amitabh Bachchan on facing criticism

Meanwhile, only recently the Brahmastra actor also penned a note on his blog, saying he is facing less criticism due to his age. He wrote on his blog, “Now with age, the ridicule has lessened. Now with time, they that are asked or are brought into the picture by me, are convinced that the man is 81, old, decrepit and mental, bear him. It shan’t be for long. And the responses go on with a sense of poor guy, so uninformed, let him be etc. etc. etc…”

Directed by Nag Ashwin, Project K stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan. The movie is slated to release on January 12, 2024.
