White Shimla thrills Amitabh

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is presently in the Himachal Pradesh capital Shimla, shooting for Shoojit Sircar's Shoebite. He reached Shimla on Monday, after inaugurating Aishwarya Bachchan's Daulatpur College in the Fatehpur district of Uttar Pradesh.

While the shooting of Shoebite took place on Tuesday, Wednesday saw an overcast sky, followed by fresh snowfall, leading to shooting disruption. But that failed to dampen the spirit of the cast and crew, who came out to enjoy a white Shimla.

As per our sources, most thrilled was Amitabh Bachchan, who on his last trip to Shimla (for BLACK in 2004) did not get to see the same,despite a long schedule, as the weather Gods were not willing! Bachchan came out of Hotel Cecil Oberoi (where he was shooting) to watch the beautiful scene!
