South Star Prithviraj Saw Big B Flicks For 'Aurangzeb' Role

Sources claim that South star Prithviraj, who was last seen playing the role of a North Indian cop in Aurangzeb, watched Amitabh Bachchan films to improve his Hindi for the role.

It seems that while shooting for the film, director Atul Sabbharwal gave Prithviraj DVDs of almost all of Amitabh Bachchan's films, so that the South actor could watch them in order to observe the nuances and pauses of Hindi dialogues. Confirming the news, the Aiyyaa star said that as no other actor in the industry speaks Hindi as well as Bachchan does, watching his films really helped him improve his dialogue delivery.

A YRF flick, Aurangzeb also starred Arjun Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Amrita Singh and other actors.
