Mumbai, March 3 (IANS) Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has started preparing for his next project, which is in collaboration with filmmaker Shoojit Sircar.

Sharing images of old school treatment posters of the adventure-comedy film, directed by S. Ramanathan, Amitabh remembered those days and shared that “Bombay to Goa” was somewhat a remake of a Tamil film.
“The remake of Tamil film ‘Madras to Pondicherry’ starring that great comedian Nagesh from Tamil cinema… Nagesh an iconic name and legendary presence in the South. His fame at times bigger than the hero stars of the day,” he posted on his official blog.
“Mehmood bhai chose to remake it. He being equally if not more in presence in Hindi cinema, his presence in film gave it huge star value…those were the times. For some reason he always believed in me. He would address me as ‘Danger Diabolic’. I never asked him why and how he arrived at this name…but it did,” he added.
The film starred actors Aruna Irani, Shatrughan Sinha and Mehmood.
