Amitabh Bachchan who has a long relation with the city of Kolkata went nostalgic visiting the place. In his tweet Bachchan wrote, "'PIKU land' ... !! Too many memories flashing by as the drive from the airport ends.. but so much more to come in the days ahead. Kolkata shall always hold a special place and space within...a 'city of joy' that energises you with intellect and passion !!"
With PIKU Amiatbh Bachchan once again gambles on his image. Unlike his handsome looks the actor will be seen with long hairs and pot belly. He plays a Bengali bhadralok or a gentleman in the movie.
Director Shoojit Sircar of VICKY DONOR and MADRAS CAFE fame speaking about the movie informed, "PIKU is a heart rendering story about the warm relation between father and daughter. Deepika Padukone plays Amitji`s daughter and Irrfan plays, Deepika`s love interest." He adds, "I am privileged to direct Mr. Bachchan along with Deepika and Irrfan. They are three powerhouse performers and it doesn't get better than this for me."
