Why do people opt for shooting films abroad? One, the locations overseas give a grand feel to the overall look of the film or two if the script demands a location abroad. But the director of the forthcoming film ‘Paa’ with Amitabh Bachchan in the lead has opted to shoot abroad for the sheer sake of keeping the look of Big B in the film under wraps.

Director Balki is fearful that somehow the look that Big B dons in ‘Paa’ will be leaked if the shooting for the film continues in India. He has followed stringent rules on location. He says “We do not allow a single visitor, not even close relatives or friends of crew members on the set. Phones of course are a complete no-no. The next thing you know, the look will be splashed on the net”.

It is felt that if Big B’s look in the film is publicized then the public will get a taste of the plot of the film. One man who was lucky enough to witness the new avatar of Big B was Aamir Khan, no other personality from Bollywood has been allowed to see Amitabh in his newly designed look made by the famous make-up artist Stephan Dupuis.

As we had revealed earlier Mr.Bachchan has to undergo a patient four hours for the make-up man to complete working on him.

The film also features Abhishek Bachchan and Vidya Balan. The last time Balki and Amitabh teamed up was for the film ‘Cheeni Kum’ which turned out to be a stupendous success.
