Big B Starer Paa Movie Review

Hello Friends Can you ever imagine watching an Mega Star Amitabh Bachchan film and not watching Amitabh Bachchan in it? Seems impossible, isn't it ? The towering persona and the rich baritone just cannot be overlooked. But R. Balki transforms the legendary actor into Auro, replaces the rich baritone with the voice of an adolescent [who's neither grown up, nor a kid] and taps the hitherto untapped talent of the icon.
