Amitabh Bachchan to pick pockets

It doesn't matter if half the world thinks that Amitabh Bachchan should take a break from work. I think if you have it, you should flaunt it. And Amitabh has the talent. There's no denying that. This time though, it seems the actor will put it better use and pick pockets. Ravi Chopra has roped in the superstar to play a pickpocket in his next film Pocketmaar.

But before you pass it off as a remake of the Dharmendra-starrer, hold on. I am told this one's a complete original. So don't mind the title. It is a comedy film with a dash of emotions.

Pocketmaar will be Bachchan's first project with BR Films after Bhootnath. Now I think, Big B agreeing for one more film with Ravi Chopra, should be music for his ears. Because at some point Chopra was really worried about his position in the Bachchan household after he wasn't invited for Abhishek's wedding. Nice to know someone's back in Bachchan's circle of trust.
