Amitabh Bachchan To Join ‘Avatar’ Cast?

The veteran Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda had teamed up for laugh riot Bade Miyan Chote Miyan more than a decade ago and now, it seems that the two actors will once again come together for director Pahlaj Nihalani‘s upcoming flick Avatar.

Though Bachchan has not signed the dotted line, director Nihalani said that he would be approaching Big B soon to play the role of a mentor to Govinda‘s character. In Avatar, an action film, Govinda will be playing the role of a sports teacher who wants to reform students and bring about a revolution to the college education system.

Amitabh Bachchan, who recently turned grandfather, will be next seen playing the role of a gangster turned politician named Sarjerao Gaikwad in Ram Gopal Varma‘s upcoming cop drama Department, which also stars Sanjay Dutt and Rana Daggubati.
