JHUND: Amitabh Bachchan takes a bullock cart ride after a long time and here’s what he has to say about it

Some of them may be aware that Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of football coach Vijay Barse in this biopic of sorts, Jhund. The filming of it seems to have kicked off in what looks like a rural setting. Amitabh, who is quite active on social media, shared a series of images from the sets of this Nagraj Manjule film. Going by it, the actor seem to having a gala time enjoying the small moments of a village life.

It started off with Amitabh Bachchan lying on a ‘khatiya’, which is generally used in villages to sleep or rest. The actor was seen peacefully taking a short nap whilst shooting for the film. He was seen sporting a simple shirt-pant and sweater in the recent look.

खटिया पर लेटने से पहले , और बैलगाड़ी पे जाने से पहले , bus में भ्रमण किया ... तो हमारे हितैषी ने कविता लिख डाली : “बस के बाद बैलगाड़ी पर, खा खा कर हिचकोले। धूप में जाकर डाली खटिया, कुछ आराम तो हो ले।।” ???????????????????????????????? विशन लाल, ई एफ। Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.
