Amitabh
Bachchan
has
seen
the
blockbuster
success
of
many
of
his
films
in
his
nearly
50-year-old
career,
but
the
megastar
says
the
prospect
of
a
movie
not
working
still
worries
him.
The
75-year-old
actor's
latest
outing
"102
Not
Out",
co-starring
Rishi
Kapoor,
has
not
only
earned
favourable
reviews,
but
is
also
doing
well
commercially.
When
asked
if
there
is
still
a
fear
of
failure
before
the
release
of
a
movie,
Bachchan
told
reporters,
"It's
always
there.
From
the
day
we
begin,
much
before
the
release,
that's
all
we
talk
about
-
what
is
going
to
happen,
how
many
theatres,
how
much
do
we
expect,
if
people
are
going
to
like
it
or
not..."
"That's
always
a
worry
for
us.
Even
now,
backstage
Chintu
(Rishi)
and
I
were
talking,
what
is
the
collection,
what
is
going
to
happen
in
the
days
to
come."
The
actor
was
speaking
at
a
special
event
to
celebrate
the
film's
success.
Bachchan
said
he
recently
met
his
"Thugs
of
Hindostan"
co-star
Aamir
Khan,
who
is
known
to
strike
gold
at
the
box
office
with
his
films,
to
understand
the
math
behind
churning
money-spinners.
"I
met
Aamir
recently
and
he
had
a
peculiar
financial
reading.
He
said
if
your
weekend
collection
is
Rs
10
crore,
if
you
multiply
it
by
three,
that's
the
estimate
of
your
lifetime
collection...
So
there
is
all
this
mathematic
reasoning
behind
it
which
I
didn't
know,"
he
said.
Based
on
playwright
Saumya
Joshi's
popular
Gujarati
play
of
the
same
name,
the
comedy-drama
featured
Bachchan
as
a
fun-loving
102-year-old
father
to
Kapoor
-
as
his
75-year-old
son.
The
actor
said
his
wife
and
Rajya
Sabha
MP-actor
Jaya
Bhaduri
had
a
smart
observation
about
the
film.
"My
family
really
liked
the
film,
the
children
loved
it.
Madam
(Bhaduri)
is
critical
of
my
work.
A
lot
of
the
times
she
won't
even
say
anything.
This
time,
she
told
me
the
timing
of
the
film
is
really
nice.
There
are
big,
sci-fi
Hollywood
projects
releasing
like
'Avengers'
and
suddenly
here
is
our
small
film,
which
will
make
a
place
in
people's
heart.
She
was
right," he
said.
When
asked
if
his
son
actor
Ranbir
liked
the
film,
Kapoor
quipped,
"He
won't
say
anything
wrong.
But
since
he
stays
in
other
house,
he
can
say
that
too.
But
everyone
liked
the
film
and
all
the
performances."
The
film
reunites
the
powerhouse
performers
on
screen
after
27
years.
The
two
actors
have
earlier
appeared
together
in
films
such
as
"Kabhie
Kabhie",
"Amar
Akbar
Anthony",
"Naseeb",
"Coolie" and
"Ajooba".
