Sudeep's Sandalwood Bachchan

Baritone and height are the easily-found similarities between Amitabh Bachchan and Sudeep. This might have made many to say that Kiccha is the Big B of the Kannada film industry. Following this belief, director Shahshank is all set to direct a film titled Bachchan starring Sudeep.

After the moderate success of Jarasandha, Shanshank is back with Bachchan. The director has penned the script keeping Sudeep in mind and has signed him to act in the upcoming Kannada film. The filmmaker's trusted aide Prasanna, who penned dialogues for his earlier movies like Krishnan Love Story and Krishnan Marriage Story, has written the dialogues for this movie too.

Bachchan is expected to take off once Sudeep completes his other projects like Varadhanayaka and Telugu movie Eega. The movie has Shekhar Chandru's cinematography and V Harikrishna's music.
