Amitabh Bachchan excited to meet Hollywood director Steven Spielberg

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is looking forward to welcoming acclaimed Hollywood director Steven Spielberg who is said to be visiting the country to celebrate the success of his Oscar-winning film Lincoln.

Lincoln, a movie that has been co-produced by Spielberg's DreamWorks along with Anil Ambani's Reliance Entertainment and DreamWorks, is a biopic on the US president Abraham Lincoln's struggles during the Civil War.

"I shall attempt to elaborate later but for now just wish to leave you with the thought of the meeting with Steven Spielberg tomorrow (Monday) and to welcome him to the country and be in conversation with him amongst a relevant audience that connects itself with the fraternity," the 70-year-old posted on his blog srbachchan.tumblr.com.

It has been reported that Anil Ambani and his wife Tina are Spielberg's official hosts during his stay here.
