I have few seconds role in The Great Gatsby: Bachchan
May 21, 2012 14:30
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has
downplayed his debut appearance in Hollywood movie "The Great
Gatsby" by calling it a blink-and-miss role.
The 69-year-old says he doesn't mind the short role in
the film because he is happy to have shared the screen with
Hollywood superstars Leonardo Di Caprio and Tobey Maguire.
"I play Meyer Wolfshiem for about a few seconds... yaa... by the time you look down on your popcorn to pick another morsel, I'd be gone from the film... he he... kinda short service (sic)," Bachchan wrote on his Blog. Directed by Baz Luhrmann, the movie is based on American author F Scott Fitzgerald classic of the same name.
Compare this to what Anil Kapoor said after his 'Hollywood career' was launched. All the producers, directors and actors there know me. There is no identity crisis. They know that this guy is from Slumdog Millionaire, 24 (TV series), and he was also in Mission: Impossible 4. They are like my visiting cards there."
In fact, Kapoor had a blink and miss role in MI4
