Many
might
have
a
thought
after
reading
the
title
that
Amitabh
Bachchan,
who
is
popularly
known
as
Big
B,
is
going
to
act
in
Telugu
films.
But
the
news
is
about
Mammootty,
the
hero
of
the
movie
Big
B!
The
Malayalam
superstar's
blockbuster
film
will
be
shown
in
Telugu
with
in
a
couple
of
weeks
from
now.
Big
B,
which
is
slated
to
clock
a
hundred
days
in
Kerala,
is
being
dubbed
into
Telugu.
It
is
said
that
the
dubbing
rights
of
Big
B
was
sold
out
for
a
record
price,
unheard
of
in
the
history
of
Malayalam
cinema.
This
is
due
to
Mammootty's
popularity
in
Teluguland
where
his
earlier
film
Saamrajyam
became
a
100
day
hit.
The
promoters
are
looking
for
a
repeat
with
the
Big
B.
Some
of
the
producers
are
already
in
touch
with
the
concerned
authorities
for
getting
the
dubbing
rights
of
the
actor's
forthcoming
film
Nasrani
as
well!
