Parthiban is all praise for Abhishek Bachchan, completes 50 per cent of his Hindi debut

The Hindi remake of Parthiban's Oththa Seruppu went on floors recently in Chennai without much hoopla. The yet-to-be-titled project has Abhishek Bachchan playing the role enacted by Parthiban in the Tamil version. C Sathya, Sudharshan and Ramji who composed music, edited and cranked the camera respectively for Oththa Seruppu have been roped in for the remake version as well. 

The actor-filmmaker has now provided a glimpse into Abhishek's look from the film through his tweet. Dressed shabbily in an unironed shirt, unkempt pant and wearing slippers, the Bollywood actor, who is also seen sporting a beard, has his hands folded as well. There is a wooden table with a pen, a police cap and a paper on it, which reminds us of the scene from the Tamil version. 

All praise for Junior Bachchan, Parthiban tweeted that the when the former can enjoy life with what life has blessed him with, he chose to work hard and pick unique projects in his career. He also appreciated the Ludo star for choosing a film like this and for the constant effort he puts in getting into the character's shoes. Parthiban also expressed happiness for working again with Sathya, Sudharshan and Ramji for the move, which marks his directorial debut in Hindi. 

A few days ago, Abhishek had taken to his Instagram account to inform that he had a small accident in Chennai while shooting for the movie. He had posted a picture of his and said that his right hand was fractured. Oththa Seruppu, which is streaming on Netflix, has won numerous awards, including Special Jury Award for Parthiban and Sound Mixing for Resul Pookutty at the 67th National Film Awards. 

Parthiban was in the news recently when Amitabh Bachchan unveiled the curtain raiser of his next directorial project, Iravin Nizhal, which is billed as a first-of-its-kind film made in a single shot.
